Lessons from a Happiness Expert on Gratitude and Positivity | How to Authentically Be You

Show notes

Welcome back to the Driven Young podcast and today we are talking about all things happiness and gratitude!

So many people are so negative, the news is so negative and so much of what we consume is negative and all of this can have a serious effect on us.

So today I have brought on Happiness Expert and researcher Declan Edwards. I met Declan on Clubhouse and he blew my friends and I away with some of the stuff he was saying. So much so we have since become friends and I invited him on the podcast to share his knowledge with you all!

Declan is the founder of the company BU, he has a bachelor of health, a Postgraduate Certificate in Positive Psychology and has Practitioner Certifications in NLP, CBT + Acceptance & Commitment Therapy. His entire company is based on the science of happiness (which I know sounds bizarre) but they do some seriously awesome stuff in the company.

In today's episode we get into

Declans Story of how he didn't do what his parents wanted him too

The top regret of the dying

why motivation isn't always good

Social media and mental health

being vulnerable

What the goal of your 20s should be

How to focus on the positive rather than the negative

And so much more...
