If happiness were a cake, this week The Speakmans' are sharing their magical recipe.

Questions answered include:

• Are The Speakmans always happy?
• Were they born happy?
• Do Liv & Hunter feel pressure to be happy, being the children of therapists?
• How do The Speakmans' deal with life’s challenges?

The family talk comparison and how this can crush your happiness, as well as discussing the influence of family, friends, work colleagues, low self-esteem, trauma and stresses, whether these be current, or in the past.

Nik explains both how and why unresolved worries and anxieties grow, as well as why the line “I’ll be happy when…” defers your chance to be happy now.

You will learn how life is like a game of snakes and ladders, and how and why having goals, no matter how small these may be, creates happiness; giving you focus, drive, energy and purpose.

We hear how Hunter starts the day singing himself happy, even with an unexpected audience, and in this week's Science Corner, Liv shares how a fall or fail nearer to your destination actually feels so much bigger, plus how only 46% of people who are struggling with their mental health, actually speak out.

In this episode, you really are gifted with The Speakmans' jam-packed toolbox for happiness.
