In this episode of the We Belong Education Podcast, we sit down with happiness researcher and founder of BU Happiness College, Declan Edwards, to explore what it truly means to live a fulfilling and joyful life. Together, we unpack the science of happiness and discuss how connection plays a powerful role in our wellbeing.

Whether you're exploring what it means to be truly present or curious about how happiness is cultivated, this episode is a gentle reminder that joy and mindfulness go hand in hand and that happiness is an imperfect journey.
