Show notes

We’re often taught to chase happiness, to believe that once we get the right job, the right relationship, the right amount of money, or finally achieve that one thing, we’ll be happy. But what happens when we make happiness our only goal? In this video, we explore why it’s important to stop treating happiness as the ultimate goalpost and start making room for the full range of human emotions. Sadness, anger, disappointment, fear, confusion & even boredom are all part of being human. And sometimes, suppressing these emotions in the name of “staying positive” can take us further away from the very happiness we’re trying so hard to find. Maybe the goal isn’t to always be happy; it’s to become comfortable with feeling everything. Watch, reflect, and let’s talk about it. 💭✨ What emotion do you think you need to get more comfortable with? #kelvinodenusi #personalgrowth #confidence
