will you get happier with age? (how to find purpose and happiness)

does growing older just mean more worries, stress, and problems? or does aging come with more happiness and fulfillment in life? in this episode, we explore what it means to be happy, how to live a life with purpose, and how to face failure without letting it crush your spirit. we talked with people older than us and asked them about their own journey with happiness, failure, and purpose. so if you're worried about aging or making sure life goes the way you want, well, maybe it doesn’t actually matter that much in the end. You’ll find happiness anyways!
