Ep 100: Happy 100th Episode! To Celebrate, We’re Meditating With Dan Harris




HerMoney with Jean Chatzky show

Summary: Happy 100th episode, HerMoney! To celebrate, we're with Dan Harris, talking happiness, meditation and money. Dan is a longtime ABC News anchor, author of 10% Happier and Meditation For Fidgety Skeptics (which certainly speaks to me) and fellow podcaster. We tend to think happiness is dependent on external factors... but science says, "Happiness is a skill. You can train your mind just the way you can train your bicep in the gym." Dan certainly feels that way. He started his journey to meditation after an on-air panic attack in 2004. We talk about what to do with the negative voice inside our heads — especially where our finances are concerned. He even guides us through a meditation at the end. Kelly and I answer your questions on planning for retirement as a teenager (yes, you read that right) and exploring new ways to invest your money. P.S. We hope you're enjoying our full week of Bonus Mailbags! Send us your questions at JeanChatzky.com.
