Sure, our genes play a significant role, but there are many very important areas of our "happiness portfolio" that are completely under our control and can thwart that biology. Harvard professor, PhD social scientist, bestselling author, and columnist Arthur C. Brooks explains why so many people find themselves with a happiness problem. Luckily, he’s got the formula to solve it. //

What is it about the great outdoors? It’s joyful, liberating, powerful, calming and soulful all at once. It’s also healing. Ali finally gets to talk to her obsession, The Ebony Anglers, a powerhouse trailblazing group of Black fisherwomen about their experience with competitive deep sea fishing. Its foundation and summer camps, Black Girls Fish and Black Boys Boat were created to make sure all kids have access to nature’s healing powers. Bonus, the ladies share #BreakingNews with Ali! And then Ali connects with her clamming soul sister New York Times food column writer Melissa Clark about their clamming and foraging addiction. It sounds like hunting and gathering, fishing and foraging, being outside and in nature feeds our primal souls.
