The Opposite of Depression Isn’t Happiness—It’s Vitality

In this episode, I (Dr. Megan) share a deeply personal reflection on navigating depression and why chasing happiness isn’t the antidote.

Instead, I explore the concept of vitality—what it really means, how it differs from happiness, and why it matters, especially in hard seasons. I unpack how intentionally building vitality can help you feel strong, present, and energized again, and how an honest awareness of death can actually deepen your connection to life.

The epsiode closes with a powerful journal prompt to help you reconnect with what makes you feel alive.

Listen in and DM me your reflections!
