WOW 342 ~ Money can’t buy happiness with Jeff Golden, author

The Wisdom Coalition Podcast — Well Of Wisdom (WOW)

“America consumes two thirds of the world’s antidepressants,” says our guest Jeff Golden https://reclaimingthesacred.net/. And while the US is one of the richest countries in the world, it’s not one of the happiest. Golden has done 12 years of research taking a look at what really makes people happy, looking specifically at this question of money and how it impacts our level of happiness. In his book, Reclaiming the Sacred: Healing Our Relationships with Ourselves and the World, he says that money and possessions account for only 2-4% of people’s happiness. So what really makes us happy? Jeff lets us know in this helpful podcast.
