22 分钟Hi Matt here.
If you want to continue finding tools to a successful and happy life, I recommend listening to the happiness lab hosted by Yale professor Doctor Lori Santos.
Doctor Santos has studied the science of happiness and has found that many of us do the exact opposite of what will make our lives better.
Based on the psychology course she teaches at Yale, she will take you through the latest scientific research and share some surprising stories that will change the way you think about happiness.
This season, shes tackling topics that affect her own life like stress, perfectionism and boredom.
If you struggle with any of those, or if it sounds like you could learn more about increasing happiness in your life, then listen to the happiness lab right here in your podcast player.
Our lives are full of decisions, both professional and personal.
Where it gets interesting and potentially tricky is when both our professional and personal decisions collide.
Today we'll learn how communication can play a critical role in helping navigate these issues.
I'm Matt Abrahams and I teach strategic communication at Stanford Graduate School of Business.
Welcome to think fast, talk Smart, the podcast.
I'm very excited to chat with Myra Strober and Abby Davison.

She was the founding director of the Stanford center for Research on Women, now the Klayman Institute for Gender Research.
Myra studied gender issues in the workplace and the economics of childcare.
Abby is a social innovation leader and career development expert.
She holds master's degrees from both Stanford Graduate School of Business and Education.
