Description

Gretchen Rubin (Life in Five Senses, The Happiness Project) is an author and podcaster. Gretchen joins the Armchair Expert to discuss what led her to the happiness space, how important relationships to other people are, and the individualistic nature of happiness. Gretchen and Dax talk about the ways physical activities make your emotions respond, how your sense of smell forces you to stay present, and her prescription for creativity through sight. Gretchen explains how slow time can move when you are doing something novel, what obliger-rebellion is, and why she is so intrigued by people who develop routines in their lives.

Hi, I’m Dax Shepard, and I love talking to people. I am endlessly fascinated by the messiness of being human, and I find people who are vulnerable and honest about their struggles and shortcomings to be incredibly sexy. I invite you to join me as I explore other people’s stories. We will celebrate, above all, the challenges and setbacks that ultimately lead to growth and betterment. What qualifies me for such an endeavor? More than a decade of sobriety, a degree in Anthropology and four years of improv training. I will attempt to discover human “truths” without any laboratory work, clinical trials or data collection. I will be, in the great tradition of 16th-century scientists, an Armchair Expert.
