Dr. Pawelski and field reporter (who is also Pete’s brother) Jon Kirkwood talk about those questions, about Dr. Pawelski’s new book “Happy Together,” about the role of artists in positive psychology, and about how Happitalist thinking can inform decisions about whether to invest more of ourselves in work or to focus more on leisure.
