Wellbeing: It’s about wholeness, not happiness – with Dr Mark Fabian, author of Beyond Happy
We grow up thinking we want to be happy (or at least, not-sad). But happiness isn’t enough. What we need is wellbeing, and as Dr Mark Fabian quotes in the dedication to his book, Beyond Happy, “Wellbeing is about wholeness, not happiness, and wholeness is so much more demanding than happiness.’
