The Business Of Happiness
When you feel good, you do good. In business and in life, we can do better and have a greater impact on the lives of others when we align our intentions and our actions with inner fulfillment. The Business of Happiness Podcast ignites the conversation of redefining our modern definition of success and how to find happiness in our work and, ultimately, in our lives. I am Dr. Tarryn MacCarthy, and in the first 2 decades of my career, I reveled in culturally recognizable success and drowned myself in personal turmoil and depression. Since then, I have embarked on a quest for greater purpose and joy in business and in life. Welcome to the conversation as each week we discuss together, and with successful business owners and leaders, how to strive for happiness. Together we will adventure to discover the secrets to finding true purpose and impact and to redefine our understanding of success. This is The Business of Happiness.

#403 - Transforming Your Worst Moment Into Your Greatest Strength
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Power returns the moment you choose yourself. In this episode, Dr. Tarryn MacCarthy shares a raw and deeply relatable story about reaching a breaking point as a high-achieving healthcare professional and the perspective shift that changed everything. For dentists, doctors, and driven women who feel overwhelmed, burned out, or stretched too thin, this episode offers a grounded reminder that growth does not always come from pushing harder. Sometimes it starts with how you see yourself.
If you’ve been carrying pressure, responsibility, and expectations while quietly losing your spark, this message will land close to home. What feels like the end of the road can become the beginning of something far greater.
