Kat Woods has founded 4 successful charities as part of the Effective Altruism Movement.
She founded Suvita, (helping families protect against vaccine-preventable diseases), Nonlinear and Superlinear (AI charities), and Charity Entrepreneurship (an incubator for charities)
In this episode, we discuss exercises that anyone can do to make themselves far happier than they currently are. These include meditation, loving kindness, and identity shifting exercises.
