Episode 09 Lisa Avery Empowering people to become more of who they are.

Lisa Avery She is a positive psychologist. My conversation with Lisa was an inspiration, as she walks her talk and is clearly passionate about her life and work.

But our conversation was more than that, as we explore some of the science behind finding meaning.

Lisa is head of UK operations for Growing with Gratitude an international organisation dedicated to the empowerment of young people through positive psychology. It is about helping them uncover previously hidden strengths and tap into deep reserves of resilience.

She also works in the corporate worlds using positive psychology to bring about change.

It is the story of someone who followed their skills for languages and teaching and discovered a passion. That discovery changed their life direction.

In the programme, Lisa explains the difference between Eudaimonic and Hedonic Happiness. And we look at the practical steps you can take to find your own journey.

I hope you enjoy my conversation with Lisa Avery
