Better Than Happy
Many of us learned early on that being good meant following the rules, keeping everyone happy, and never causing discomfort. So maybe you find yourself saying yes when really, you mean no.

537. Have a Resentment-Free Marriage with Natalie Clay
Better Than Happy
Resentment in marriage often feels like an inevitable part of long-term relationships.

These everyday moments can accumulate into something that feels permanent and insurmountable, creating distance between partners who once felt deeply connected. This week, my sister Natalie Clay returns to the podcast as our resident couples coach to challenge this assumption. She brings a fresh perspective on resentment that turns conventional...

Do you believe that if you're too accepting of yourself, you'll never improve? That being hard on yourself is the only way to grow? If so, you're not alone.

531. A Story Is Worth 1000 Pictures
Better Than Happy
Stories shape us more profoundly than facts ever could. A public speaking coach once told me that if a picture is worth a thousand words, a story is worth a thousand pictures. We rarely remember the actual tactics from lessons or speeches, but the stories stay with us. Earlier this year, I brought in a storytelling coach to lead a workshop for coaches and content creators. We spent the day in this beautiful library room in Oceanside, California, listening to stories, telling stories, and learning what makes stories truly impactful.
