About this listen

“Happiness is not an event. It’s a little step by step by step process.” Happiness isn’t something that just happens—it’s something you build. The key lies in cultivating self-wisdom and deliberately shaping your inner world to respond better to life’s external conditions. Real happiness grows from inside out, and the secret isn’t in chasing thrills but in forming a happiness plan—simple steps you can take to make your life feel more fulfilling. Carl Barney shares how a radical act of generosity—giving his inheritance to loved ones before his death—sparked the creation of “happiness plans” that transformed lives. He explains that the happiness experiment isn’t just about fleeting joy, but about growing self-awareness and living intentionally with the support of coaching, reflection, and values-aligned action. Carl is an entrepreneur and philanthropist who founded the Prometheus Foundation and authored The Happiness Experiment. Deeply inspired by Aristotle and Ayn Rand, he champions rational, life-loving philosophy and supports others in crafting lives of meaning and joy.
