Join us as part of our Conversations that Matter series. This talk will be a continuation of the Pursuit of Happiness talk that took place in May. You are welcome to attend even if you missed the first one. There is so much to talk about.Chasing happiness? Maybe you’re running in the wrong direction. We spend our lives chasing happiness, yet rarely stop to ask what it is—or how to shape a life that lets us pursue happiness, not just long for it.  In this talk, join us on a journey through the latest scientific insights from psychology, neuroscience, and behavioral economics to uncover what truly leads to lasting happiness and life satisfaction.This is not about positive thinking or empty inspiration. It’s about real, evidence-based strategies that can reshape your habits, your goals, and even your definition of success. Whether you’re seeking more contentment in daily life or aiming to reorient your path entirely, this talk will leave you with powerful tools—and a renewed sense of what really matters.Dr. Varghese 'VJ' John is an accomplished physicist and technologist with a deep commitment to scientific research. With a passion for education in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), VJ has dedicated himself to teaching and inspiring a diverse range of individuals.
