In this powerful and perspective-shifting episode, Jonah flips the script on happiness — not as something you stumble into, but something you build.
'Happy on Purpose' is a deep dive into the mindset, habits, and micro-decisions that allow us to choose joy, even when life isn’t playing fair. Jonah unpacks the myths around happiness, explores the difference between reactive emotions and proactive inner peace, and shares the bold idea that happiness is not a reward — it’s a skill.
