Hey there, it's Martine.
I hope you're having a great holiday season.
Today, I wanted to share an episode for my friend Maggie Penman.
She's a reporter for The Optimist,
which means she tells stories about inspiring people and things that are going right in the world.
Earlier this year, she did the story I loved about a possible secret to happiness.
It's called Flow.
Flow is this concept in psychology, and it basically means getting in the zone.
The people you talk to for this story find it in a very funny way.
But there are all kinds of ways to find it.
Cooking, knitting, doing yoga, playing a musical instrument.
I personally feel flow when I'm taking tennis lessons,
which I'm not very good, but that doesn't matter.
I'm in flow.
So whatever your thing is, I hope you're finding some time to do it this week.
And I hope you enjoy this episode.
We are really going to be zigzagging.
It's a fairly shallow plateau.
We can get three of us, you know, 10, 12 feet apart.
