Episode Details

We're back for Season 15 with crowd-favorite, positive psychology and happiness expert Rob Mack as we talk about the frustration and futility of seeking love from others, instead of yourself. We discuss why we're searching for love in all the wrong places, the detriment of overthinking when it comes to your love life, and how to balance needs in a relationship plans for the future with the present, eternal love that we all hold.

Trigger Warning: There is a brief mention of thoughts of being suicidal in the intro when discussing Rob's background and catalyst for becoming a happiness expert.
