Author: Jody Moore November 15, 2024 Duration: 28:13

Is your brain making things harder than they need to be?

 

I've noticed a funny thing our minds do - we overcomplicate the simple and oversimplify the complex... and it's not serving us. Whether it's our health, relationships, work, or goals, the path forward is often pretty straightforward. In this episode, you'll learn how to recognize when you're overcomplicating or oversimplifying, and what to do instead.

Hosted by Jody Moore, Better Than Happy explores a simple but profound idea: the pursuit of happiness might actually be limiting us from the richer, more purposeful lives we're designed for. This isn't about abstract theory; it's a grounded conversation about the tangible skills we need to navigate being human. Each episode digs into the real-world application of principles that touch on everything from personal relationships and physical health to managing emotions, building confidence, and even navigating entrepreneurship and finances. You'll hear practical tools and candid discussions that address the full spectrum of our experiences, all through a lens that thoughtfully integrates faith and spirituality. The aim is to move beyond just feeling good in the moment and toward building a life of authentic meaning and resilience. Tune in to this podcast for a fresh perspective that challenges conventional self-help narratives, offering actionable insights for taking your current situation, whatever it may be, and thoughtfully steering it toward what comes next.
