The Happiness Trap: Happiness for the Rest of Us

A frustrated victim of motivational speakers, Arena begins her look at the happiness industry with us while reading The Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin. She will take us back to a Millionaire Mind Seminar where her quest to live her dreams brought her to a standstill with debt, legal trouble, and living in her worst nightmare - geographically, even.

Amy Arena holds a B.A. in American Studies from San Francisco State University. A respected actress and world-renown singer (at least underground) , Arena has written several peer-appreciated, but not-yet-produced plays, has published poetry and won awards for her short stories on websites that no longer exist, and produced an album that she can't afford to hype with the finesse of the happiness experts.

    “And I feel, so much depends on the weather…” Stone Temple Pilots

    I know I’ve been tapping and dedicating myself to chiseling down my goals, but I have to say, it’s been sunny and a bit warmer up here in the mountains the last two days.  When thinking on what to say tonight and my good mood, I realized this correlation.  While I do believe at least half of my cheer could be attributed to the weather, I think I could hang with a smile in Seattle.  I do like fog. 

    It’s the cold that’s been killing me!  Oh, spring, have you sprung?
