Listen to ordinary, extraordinary people answer the question, "What makes you happy?" Simple, joyful and surprisingly reflective, each episode explores both what unites us and what makes us distinct from each other by focusing on our happiness. Fed up of #s? It's a bit of fun reminding us happiness, like a #, is always temporary; we're always changing. The #happydaysproject says let's share happiness here, and whenever we can.

Published:
This interview made me smile a lot, and I know you will too. Greg dreams of life on other planets, living forever, and summer days playing baseball with his friends. I dare you not to be transported. Oh and at the end I bang on about making a cup of tea, because apparently I can barely let a single episode go by without someone doing that.

It’s hard, sometimes, to stop the outside creeping in…come cosy up with Hannah and I, as we reflect on roast dinners and daffodils. Also in this episode, a special update about your guide to better disagreements…

Welcome back friends, and welcome to a snippet of the world of Tom. Between dogs, sheep, and russet leaves, as well as money, back to back marathons and the right attitude, you're going to get more than you bargained for in this episode. Also, I wanted to give you a quick update on Jay, from episode 3, who has, in the years since his interview, WON the 24 hour solo cycle race he participates in every year. Plus, he and his family are doing very well :-) congratulations Jay!

Today Jay brings us back to basics: family, quality time, and exercise. Except that there’s nothing basic about surprise pregnancies, 24 hour solo bike racing, a broken back and a hot temper!
#happydaysproject - AYO
Published:
“I love Mondays.” Today we’ll hear from Ayo, who loves Mondays. Just like you, now that this podcast comes out on Mondays! But seriously, Ayo didn't just wake up loving the first day of the traditional working week - listen to this episode to hear about her cultivation of happiness via routine, companionship, pride, and the ocean.
