I recently had a fun afternoon in the studio with members of a Massachusetts running club.
I don't often have this much fun during a recording session,
but having fun was actually the topic we'd all gathered to discuss.
You see, even though they started out as a running club,
the members have started to meet for some very different activities,
inspired by something I talked about on the Happiness Lab.
I remember in your podcast you were saying, like,
I'm a fun person, but I don't really have that much fun.
This is Natalie Robinson,
and she could totally relate to the lack of fun I was experiencing in my life.
When the kids were little, it was so easy to have fun.
Like, you take them to the zoo, you take them to the water park, and then when they get older...
there's less things to do that are that pure fun.
And so when we heard your podcast, we were like, yeah, are we fun?
Like, do we even have fun anymore?
Like, let's have more fun.
Natalie told the rest of her running club about what she'd heard on the Happiness Lab,
that you could inject playfulness and fun back into life with a little bit of deliberate effort.
And so they got together and planned fun interventions.
