The Happiness Rebellion: Challenging Life's "Should" List
What if everything you've been taught about creating a good life is actually making you miserable? In "Happy Ever After," behavioral scientist Paul Dolan delivers a provocative challenge to society's prescribed paths to happiness. Drawing from his unique perspective as both a Harvard-educated professor at the London School of Economics and someone who proudly maintains his working-class identity, Dolan exposes how our relentless pursuit of wealth, marriage, education, and other prescribed life paths often leads us away from genuine happiness. His work has resonated with figures like Melinda Gates and sparked heated debates, with The Guardian calling it "a demolition job on the myths we tell ourselves about happiness." Through research, personal stories, and sharp social commentary, Dolan invites us to question whether we're living by scripts that were never designed for our fulfillment.
