She has the most impressive portfolio: Telstra Women’s Business Award, New York Times, Yahoo Finance, Forbes, Adriana Huffington’s Thrive Global, Westpac, and TED and TEDx presenter. In this conversation we explore a model for happiness through the lens of positive psychology, namely the PERMA Model. We then go on exploring the 5 types of inner critics that keep us from fully thriving and living a life free from judgement. This 21st century knowledge is crucial when handling our complex modern minds, and finding long-lasting happiness.
