About this listen
Are you happy? Nearly half of adults worldwide—40 percent—would say “no”. Even when we possess it, happiness can be a fleeting emotion. It’s natural that we should desire something longer lasting.
In Beyond Happiness: The 6 Secrets of Lifetime Satisfaction, psychologist Dr. Jennifer Guttman guides listeners in living a deeply fulfilling life by aiming for a kind of contentment that is more sustainable than happiness.
Having endured a number of life-altering challenges, Dr. Guttman knows firsthand how transient happiness can be. She spent nine years battling medical professionals to receive care for her son, whose long undiagnosed ailment eventually led to extensive heart surgery. Next, she faced life-threatening health issues of her own and, soon after, her father’s death. Unexpectedly, she came out stronger and more content. But how, exactly?
Dr. Guttman analyzed the steps she took to persist in the face of adversity and to remain optimistic despite the obstacles she had to overcome. She subsequently shared these actionable techniques with clients suffering from depression, anxiety, feelings of unlovability, and feelings of existential despair. The tools that had helped her helped them.
In Beyond Happiness, Dr. Guttman empowers listeners to achieve lifetime satisfaction by employing six techniques that can be practiced and even mastered in the comfort of your own home:
- Avoiding assumptions
- Reducing people-pleasing behaviors
- Facing fears
- Making decisions
- Closing out tasks
- Active self-reinforcement
When coalesced, Dr. Guttman’s techniques will buttress feelings of inherent lovability, defiant resilience, patience, authenticity, and self-confidence. She provides clear-cut strategies and tangible steps that can be easily incorporated into everyday life.
Engaging and enlightening, Beyond Happiness: The 6 Secrets of Lifetime Satisfaction offers a user-friendly, practical approach not only to surviving life’s pitfalls but to thriving with a durable, balanced, sustainable level of contentment.

Incredible insight into obtaining happiness
Although many other reviewer‘s do not like the narration, I felt like the narrator was the author of the book, and speaking directly to me! The book is very well put together and provides some incredible insight on achieving authentic happiness. As a people pleaser, who for years was unable to overcome fear… feel like this book has given me many steps towards achieving real happiness in my life. I would like to purchase a hard copy of this. This is a must read!!

Not relatable
This book was extremely difficult to listen to and relate to the author as someone who could give genuine insight into what can help people be happy. I’d also feel better if I could take several weeks off and fly to Europe when I need to have some “me time”, but some of us aren’t living that life

This title showed up at the exact right time
On Saturday, I saw on my iPhone that all my friends were together and I was not invited. I didn't sleep Sunday. Sunday morning, I was in a full-blown panic attack. I sat for a minute and realized that this was unhealthy. I turned to audibles to see what was available. I found this book, and instantly I connected with the author. 90% of what she is saying applies to me and my life. It was eye-opening. This book is going to impact my life positively.

Learning to stand up for yourself
This book has is narrated however the content is excellent and very thorough. I have learned some tools to help me understand that I need to put myself as a priority and others needs/demands/ problems second. I’ll listen again for sure.
