Gabby Sanderson returns with a thought-provoking solo episode of The Happier Life Project, unpacking the cultural narratives we’ve long associated with happiness, and why many of them don’t hold up under psychological scrutiny.In this episode, Gabby explores ten of the most common happiness myths that shape how we live, love, and measure success. From the belief that achievement guarantees fulfilment to the idea that happiness is a constant emotional state, she gently challenges these assumptions and replaces them with insights grounded in behavioural science and real-life experience.Listeners are guided through familiar thought patterns; “I’ll be happy when…”, “Being busy means I’m doing well”, “A relationship will complete me”, and are invited to reconsider what actually contributes to a meaningful, sustainable sense of wellbeing.Rather than offering quick fixes, this episode reframes happiness as something more nuanced, personal, and attainable. It’s a conversation about unlearning, self-awareness, and building a life that feels good from the inside out - not just one that looks good on paper.A reflective and reassuring listen for anyone who’s ever felt like they’re doing everything “right” but still not quite feeling how they expected.To download the free My Possible Self App: https://mypossibleself.app.link/podcastTo follow My Possible Self on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mypossibleself/
