About Event

We’re told to chase happiness like it’s the ultimate prize. But is happiness really the thing we’re after — or is it just a byproduct of something deeper? Maybe what we actually want is peace. Or fulfillment. Or purpose. Maybe happiness comes when we stop trying so hard to feel it.

At this salon, we’ll explore what it really means to pursue happiness, and whether it’s even the right goal. Is happiness something we can choose, a state we can build, or does it only show up when life is in alignment?

We’ll dive into questions like:

✨ Is happiness an emotion that comes and goes, or a state of being we can actually cultivate?
✨ Is chasing happiness making us restless, or is it what keeps us moving forward?
✨ Do we really want to be “happy,” or do we crave peace, purpose, and fulfillment—and call that happiness?
✨ How much of happiness is in our hands, and how much comes down to circumstance or luck?
✨ What happens when we stop asking “am I happy?” and start asking “am I living the life I want?”

Join us for an honest, curious conversation about what happiness really is and whether it should even be the thing we’re chasing.

Dinner and drinks provided by Next Jump! We’ll be in Chelsea.

Agenda:
Next Jump Fair: 5pm
Deep Talk Salon: 6pm-7.30pm

Attendance Policy: Please only RSVP if you can make it. If you cancel within 48 hours of an event, you won’t be able to attend the next two salons (exceptions made if you're feeling sick — please stay home and message me if that’s the case). Salons rely on people showing up, so help us keep the vibe right by committing if you can.

PS. Know someone who would love this? Invite them — just have them RSVP separately!
