We discuss why it’s helpful to touch someone during a tough conversation (if

appropriate, of course). We mention why closing your eyes in a store dressing

room can make it easier to make good buying decisions, and we take a deep dive

into listeners’ answers to two common questions from Questioners. We also raise

a listener question: “My relatives won’t restrain their dogs, who, while friendly,

are scaring my young daughter.”

Gretchen Rubin is HAPPIER, and she wants you to be happier too. The #1 bestselling author of The Happiness Project and Better Than Before gets more personal than ever as she brings her practical, manageable advice about happiness and good habits to this lively, thought-provoking podcast. Gretchen’s cohost and guinea pig is her younger sister, Elizabeth Craft, a TV writer and producer living in Los Angeles, who (lovingly) refers to Gretchen as her happiness bully.
