THERE'S MORE TO LIFE THAN BEING HAPPY
Our culture is obsessed with happiness, but what if there's a more fulfilling path?

Learn more about the difference between being happy and having meaning as Smith offers four pillars of a meaningful life.
The speaker:
Emily Esfahani Smith · Journalist, author. In her book "The Power of Meaning," Emily Esfahani Smith rounds up the latest research -- and the stories of fascinating people she interviewed -- to argue that the search for meaning is far more fulfilling than the pursuit of personal happiness.
