Being a podcaster means you sometimes get some strange and unexpected deliveries.
You see, whenever I read an ad for the show, it's only for a product that I know and like,
and that means I'm often checking out new products before advertising them to you on the Happiness Lab.
I often come home to random packages waiting for me on my doorstep.
Our ads are what keeps the show going,
which means you can keep listening to the Happiness Lab for free.
But the other reason I love our advertisers is that the people who work at the companies who sponsor us are usually fans of the Happiness Lab just like you.
That's why they want to support the show and all the work we do.
Take, for example, my most recent delivery,
a colorful box of soaps and cleaners which had a handwritten note inside.
We are so excited to work with you.
We are big fans, it said.
Please enjoy some of our favorite products.
Thanks, Mrs.
Myers.
These sentence samples arrived at the absolute perfect time.
Because over the past few months, I've been on a bit of an olfactory journey.
It's a challenge I started after I chatted with the great happiness expert Gretchen Rubin.
For some people, I think that this can be kind of an overlooked sense.
