Why life is more than happiness
Saturday, 20 December, 2025
This week I’m joined by the founder of More Than Happy—Matty Lawrence. What I love about Matty is that he’s never satisfied with surface-level answers—especially when it comes to happiness, purpose, and what it actually means to live well.In this conversation we talk about transitions, the kind you choose, and the kind that choose you. We explore why happiness is fleeting, why life is more than happy, and how nature, walking, and journaling can become powerful tools for clarity and healing. Matty also shares his experience walking the Kumano Kodo in Japan—a pilgrimage trail thousands of years old—and how that journey helped shape the work he’s offering now: guiding others through their own ‘journeys in true nature.’We also get into rites of passage, why modern life often misses them and how kids and parents alike can benefit from healthy initiation, mentorship, and community as they move through change.If you’d like to connect with Matty or find out more about potentially joining the next pilgrimage in Japan, visit morethanhappy.lifeI hope you enjoy this conversation with Matty.Big hugRich Get full access to The Dad Mindset at www.thedadmindset.com/subscribe
