If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by your emotions, been hard on yourself without knowing why, or struggled to make sense of old wounds that still affect you—this conversation will resonate deeply.

Dr. Lauren Bochicchio is a therapist, clinician scientist, and Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Columbia University. With years of experience working at the intersection of trauma, emotion, and healing, she brings a rare blend of clinical expertise and human warmth. Lauren’s work is grounded in science, but what makes her approach so powerful is how clearly she sees people—especially when they’re struggling to see themselves.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

🧠 Why trauma isn’t always about what happened, but about how it shaped the way you see yourself

💬 How emotions like anger and withdrawal often mask deeper feelings like sadness, shame, or fear

🔍 Why so many of us downplay or dismiss our own pain—and how that keeps us stuck

🛠️ What effective therapy really looks like, and why learning emotional skills as an adult isn’t a weakness, but a strength

💡 A simple shift in perspective that can help you get to the root of an emotional reaction and start to change it

This conversation won’t tell you to “just think positive” or push through. Instead, it offers thoughtful, compassionate guidance for anyone ready to understand themselves better—and feel a little more human in the process.

What actually helps us feel happier? In this episode, Dr. Laurie Santos shares practical, science-backed strategies that really work.

Dr. Laurie Santos is a cognitive scientist and tenured professor of psychology at Yale University. Her class, “Psychology and the Good Life,” became Yale’s most popular course in its 300-year history— and has now helped millions of people rethink what truly leads to a better life.

In this conversation, Dr. Laurie Santos unpacks why so many of our instincts about happiness lead us in the wrong direction and what the science says to do instead. Drawing on decades of research, she explains how our brains are wired to chase things that don’t actually make us feel better— and how small, intentional shifts in our habits and mindset can lead to real, lasting change.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

🧠 Why our brains are wired to chase success, status, and more—yet still leave us feeling unsatisfied

📉 How “hedonic adaptation” makes even our happiest moments fade faster than expected

💡 How to rethink ambition so it supports—not sabotages—your well-being

⏳ Why buying back your time is often more valuable than buying more stuff

📌 What your negative emotions are trying to tell you—and how to respond in a healthier way

🛠 Simple, proven tools to build real happiness without overhauling your life
