Episode 21: The 2026 World Happiness Report & What Actually Makes Us Happy?

In this episode, Kyra revisits a topic she's explored before: the World Happiness Report. The 2026 edition just dropped, with Finland claiming the top spot again, followed by Iceland, Denmark, Costa Rica, and Sweden. This year's report focuses heavily on social media's impact on well-being (to be covered next episode!), but Kyra zooms in on a different angle: what "happiness" actually measures and what these countries have in common - e.g., systems that reduce chronic stress, protect rest, support nature and being outside, and build security and collaboration into daily life. Drawing on her experiences living across Europe and Central America, Kyra reflects on what we can realistically apply to our own lives and why systemic change matters more than individual hustle.
