The Joy Experiments: A New Season of Psychologically Speaking
Season 3
Welcome to Season 3 of Psychologically Speaking, hosted by psychologist and researcher Leila Ainge. This season, we explore joy not as a feeling to define, but as an experience that moves us, connects us, and shapes how we live and work. In this short teaser episode, Leila shares the story behind choosing joy as her word of the year, the psychology of positive emotions, and why joy matters more than ever in a world that often dismisses it as a distraction.
We’ll explore:
- The science behind joy, including Broaden-and-Build Theory
- How joy supports identity, motivation, and social connection
Real stories, guest interviews, and solo episodes that dig into joy’s role in creativity, leadership, and everyday life
If you're curious about the psychology of joy, identity, and the subtle ways we shape our lives this season is for you.
