The Human Optimization Project: Moving From Stress to Joy | How to Cultivate Happiness and Joy at Home and Work
Host: Christopher L. Camp, M.D.
Guest: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D.
We would all be open to the idea of a little less stress in our lives, especially if we can fill that with joy and happiness. For most of us, this holds true for both our personal and professional lives. But in this age of increasing pressure, demands, expectations, and deadlines, is that even a realistic expectation? Today we are going to dive deep into the meaning of joy, why so many of us don’t get enough, and how that is impacting our overall lives. In addition to that, we will discuss some intentional strategies for replacing stress with joy to help us become our best selves.
The three big questions we will tackle in this episode are:
1) How do you define joy and happiness, and how do they play a role in our everyday lives?
2) Why do so many of us struggle with finding joy in our lives, and how is that impacting us?
3) How can we intentionally design our lives and work to experience more joy, and make joy our default?
To help us answer these questions, my guest today is Darryl S. Chutka, M.D., General Internal Medicine Physician at Mayo Clinic and the host of the Mayo Clinic Talks Podcast.
