Today’s episode is focused on the cultural principles of hope, and is a reading from an essay I originally wrote for The New Quo Learning Community where I curate overlooked ethical and cultural wisdom straight to the inboxes of members who are passionate about finding new insight and inspiration to practice their social justice values. 

This essay is titled “why good people are happier people” and dives into a recent study that found people rated by others as more moral tend to be happier and find more meaning in life. The study also describes how morality supports happiness through stronger relationships and a more coherent sense of self. We top the episode off with a reading of an original poem I’ve written to inspire how you think about hope in your own life. Tune in with the player above or listen on apple podcast, spotify, or wherever you stream your podcasts.
