Can Happiness Really Be Engineered? Mo Gawdat Says Yes—And Here’s How.

I know what you’re thinking… ANOTHER episode on happiness? Haven’t we heard it all before? This one’s different. The code is cracked, and you’re about to learn exactly how it works.

Joining us today is Mo Gawdat, bestselling author of Unstressable and former Chief Business Officer of Google X. Mo sits down with Dave to deliver a practical, science-backed approach to hacking your mind and body for lasting joy.

Mo dives into the raw science behind happiness and stress—revealing how your brain runs on algorithms that you can actually reprogram. Discover why dopamine might be sabotaging your joy, how to decode the four types of stress, and biohacks that can flip the script on your mental and physical resilience.

He also shares the deeply personal story of how he turned unimaginable tragedy into a global mission for happiness and purpose. Mo’s insights will challenge everything you thought you knew about living a fulfilled life.

What You’ll Learn:

• The happiness algorithm—and how to make it work for you

• Why dopamine addiction is robbing you of joy (and how to fix it)

• The four stress modalities and how to regain control

• Biohacks that build resilience—like cold plunges, gratitude, and micro-habits

• How small mindset shifts can create major life transformations

And don’t miss Part 2, dropping in two days! Dave and Mo explore the intersection of happiness and AI, revealing how to get them both working FOR you instead of against you.
