Reframing joy and happiness involves shifting from shallow happy to deep happy by focusing on healthy choices and self-improvement. Associating junk food or alcohol with joy may indicate an underlying dissatisfaction with other aspects of life, leading to the need for external stimulation. Choosing to abstain from unhealthy habits and recognizing the need for change in unfulfilling activities can lead to a more meaningful and fulfilling life.

In this episode, I cover some of the most life-changing paradoxes I’ve ever come across, and discuss how they can improve how you approach your life.
