This week on Redefining Happiness, we’re kicking off a three-part series on stretching happiness across time, starting with anticipation.
Have you ever noticed how looking forward to something, big or small, can boost your mood days in advance? In this episode, I’ll explain how anticipation works in the brain, why it matters more than we realize, and how you can intentionally build more of it into your everyday life.
We’ll talk about why daydreaming isn’t a waste of time, how small rituals can spark big joy, and what stops us from letting ourselves feel excited. Plus, I’ll share five simple ways to bring anticipation into your week, no vacation or big event required.
Your Happiness Challenge this week will help you start practicing this right away, so you can stop rushing through your days and start enjoying what’s ahead.
If you’re ready to feel more joy now, not just when the good thing finally happens, this one’s for you.
