What makes you happy? What is true happiness. Is it a place, a way of life, a person? Can happiness be constant or is it just as fleeing as every other emotion. How do you measure an emotion that is ignited in a million different ways. What better way to understand what makes a person or a culture happy, than to completely immerse ourselves in the very things that create their joy. Chasing Bliss seeks to find a way to reconnect people, religions, and ethnicities.
Together with Paulino, we explore the world in search of compassion, kindness, love, and understanding peoples intimate experiences of bliss. Through conversation, tradition, food, music, and history this show highlights the similarities between distant cultures, while teaching us to value and understand the beauty in each other's differences.

Educating people about the importance of happiness is crucial. It touches on personal well-being, societal health, and even economic productivity.
Happiness is not just about making individuals happier, it is about building healthier, more productive, and cohesive societies. Happiness emphasizes the interconnectedness of personal well-being, social relationships, and societal health, highlighting that happiness is not just a personal goal but a collective one.
Happiness is linked to a range of health benefits, including a stronger immune system, lower stress levels, and a reduced risk of chronic diseases. By prioritizing happiness and the importance of gratitude, individuals may adopt healthier lifestyles and attitudes that contribute to longer healthier lives.
Happier individuals are more productive and creative. They can contribute to more effective and innovative workplaces. Happy employees tend to be more engaged and willing to go the extra mile, which benefits both the individuals and the organizations they work for.
On a larger scale, a focus on happiness can lead to societal changes that prioritize well-being over material success. This can influence policy decisions, corporate strategies, and cultural norms, leading to a society that values and cultivates happiness.
