Show Notes

In this Superstar of an episode, Dr. Kim and Dacia talk about why some people think musicals are Wicked cool, and for others, it makes them Miserable[s]. Dr. Kim applies the PERMA model (Seligman, 2012) from positive psychology to help shed some Amazing Technicolor light on the subject. Mamma Mia! This episode is the Shipoopi!

For those of you following along at home, here's what the PERMA acronym stands for:

P--positive emotions

E--engagement

R--relationships

M--meaning

A--achievement and accomplishment
