What can the world learn from the happiest country on Earth? In this uplifting and insightful episode, we sit down with a leading futurist from Finland to explore the nation’s extraordinary journey to becoming the world’s happiest country—for the eighth year in a row. From the magic of saunas to a rock-solid social safety net, from digital innovation to deep trust in institutions, we unpack the Finnish formula for well-being and resilience. Along the way, we talk about the guest’s personal path to becoming a futurist, recent projects at Futures Platform, and why happiness is more than a fleeting feeling—it’s a long-term strategy. Tune in for a timely dose of optimism and practical wisdom, straight from the North.
