  This week, the Happiness Lab is bringing you a special crossover episode with the Immigrantly podcast.

• 00:16

  Immigrantly is hosted by Sadia Khan, a social entrepreneur and the founder of Immigrantly Media.

  She and I had an incredible conversation where we explored the origins of happiness.

• 00:27

  We talked about whether happiness is just a fleeting moment or whether we can sustain it over time.

• 00:32

  We also explored how our backgrounds, personalities and choices shaped our perceptions of happiness.

• 00:38

  I really enjoyed the conversation, so I hope you do too.

  Hello and welcome to Immigrantly.

  I am Saadiya Khan.

  This week on Immigrantly, I embark on a journey into the vast, vibrant, and unpredictable world of happiness.

• 01:03

  Is happiness a fleeting moment or a lasting state?

• 01:07

  Can it be actively pursued, or is it intrinsic to human existence?

• 01:12

  How do our backgrounds, personalities, and life choices shape our experiences of happiness?

• 01:19

  And what is this elusive state everyone seeks but seems hard to grasp consistently?

• 01:26

  And lastly, is happiness a universal language that transcends different lives and cultures, or is it as diverse as the individuals seeking it?

• 01:36

  Yes.

• 01:37

  We will address all those questions and more in our today's episode.

• 01:43

  According to my today's guest, Lori Santos, a cognitive science and psychology professor at Yale, happiness isn't just an emotion you feel, but something that can be taught, almost like a muscle that can be worked out.
