Who knows best about what makes you happy? In the first episode of Relatable Research, we talk about Stephanie Hare and Nicole Vincent's paper "Happiness, Cerebroscopes and Incorrigibility: Prospects for Neuroeudaimonia." This paper tied together a few different research fields like Psychology, Neuroscience, and Philosophy and discussed how scientists and empirical research can potentially help us live happier lives. They also argued that, although science can help predict what is likely to make us happy, ultimately, only we can determine whether we feel happy or not. 
For this episode, we talk about how pursuing happiness doesn't have to be rushed - it can be a spontaneous feeling. We also break down the different sections of this paper and share the meaningful parts that we found worth noting. Finally, we try and discuss why it's important to value our own personal pursuit of happiness.
