The Real Secret to Happiness (And Why Self-Help Has It All Wrong)

The Real Secret to Happiness (And Why Self-Help Has It All Wrong)

What if everything you’ve been told about happiness… is upside down?

In this powerful episode, Jen Smith breaks down a viral conversation between a major podcast host and a Harvard “happiness expert” — and exposes why self-help advice is leaving millions burnt out, anxious, and spiritually starving.

You’ll learn why:
• Happiness can’t be measured by hacks, tips, or 1% upgrades
• The world’s truth keeps moving, which means it’s not truth
• Chasing happiness feels good in the moment but always leaks
• Serving others flips the entire equation and fills you in ways self-help never can
• God’s model of joy is the opposite of the world’s model — and it actually works

Jen shares stories, metaphors, scripture, and real-world examples that illuminate one core message:
Happiness isn’t something you chase. It’s something that chases YOU when you live aligned with God, purpose, and service.

If you’ve ever felt empty, restless, or “almost happy” no matter what you achieve… this is your wake-up episode.
