Ep 79: The World’s Happiest People Have This in Common with Monique Rhodes

Happiness isn't just a fleeting feeling; it’s a skill we can learn and a practice we can live. In this episode, I’m joined by Monique Rhodes, host of the “In Your Right Mind” podcast, for a warm and inspiring conversation about joy, suffering, and the inner work of becoming who you are.

After traveling the world to study the habits of the happiest people, Monique discovered something beautifully simple that they all have in common. We talk about emotional reactivity, self-worth, and how choosing peace over chaos is a daily act of courage. Her story is living proof that happiness isn’t found, it’s built.

Topics Covered:

• The one surprising trait shared by the happiest people in the world
• Why self-worth is the foundation of emotional resilience
• How a near-death experience changed Monique’s life path
• What it really means to choose peace over reactivity
• The daily practice Monique uses to check in with herself
• The shift from “what do I want to do” to “who do I want to be”
• Why healing begins when we meet ourselves with kindness
• How happiness is cultivated, not achieved
