Ingrid Fetell Lee studies joy to help people understand the profound effects our surroundings have on our well-being. Fascinating!

On this episode of Clever, Amy and Jaime talk to designer, researcher and author Ingrid Fetell Lee, who spent her childhood traveling back and forth between divorced parents, indulging her curiosity during unstructured time, and losing herself in books and her journal. Her professional path routed her through creative writing, market research and industrial design on the way to dedicating her life to the study of joy, and helping people understand the very profound effects our surroundings have on our well-being. It?s powerful and paradigm-shifting work! Listen:
