Description: We're bringing you an episode of one of our favorite podcasts, The Happiness Lab with Dr. Laurie Santos, on which Dan was a guest.

And even the best jobs can sometimes be stressful and draining. So how do we set ourselves up to thrive at work?    Dan joins Dr Laurie Santos to explore strategies to be a happier employee and a better employer.    Join Dan's online community here Follow Dan on social: Instagram, TikTok Subscribe to our YouTube Channel   To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/10HappierwithDanHarris   Thanks to our sponsor:  Airbnb: Your home might be worth more than you think.
