Get Happy with These Immediate Habits! | Gretchen Rubin

  • Summary

  • Welcome back to another inspiring episode of "Women of Impact"! Today, our incredible host, Lisa Bilyeu, sits down with the brilliant and insightful Gretchen Rubin, best-selling author and happiness expert. Together, they explore the fascinating world of personal tendencies and how they shape our ability to meet expectations and form lasting habits. Gretchen delves into her "Four Tendencies" framework—obligers, questioners, upholders, and rebels—offering invaluable insights on how to leverage these traits to achieve personal success and happiness. In this episode, you'll discover the powerful role that outer accountability, self-awareness, and embracing individual differences play in our emotional well-being. Lisa and Gretchen highlight the importance of enjoying the journey rather than just the outcome, the impact of sleep, diet, and exercise on our moods, and the transformative effects of focusing on relationships and connecting through our senses. Gretchen also shares her wisdom from her latest book, "Life in Five Senses," and offers practical tips for using music, taste, and even scent to enhance our emotional states and deepen our relationships. Whether you're a rebel resisting the norm or an obliger thriving with accountability, this conversation will provide you with the tools and perspectives needed to craft your unique path to happiness.
