I’m excited to share that my free course “The Science of Well-Being for Teens” is available on YouTube! It’s now easier than ever to explore these lessons - *without* having to take a whole course.

Every week for the next 6 weeks, I’ll be re-releasing 1 week of videos from "The Science of Well-Being for Teens," just as they are in the original course. Week 1 is already available, and you can watch it now on my YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwGEcaoTQRk&list=PLWHJHzhtiAuRicnwnrdZQSMQJKbwHaTuq.

In gratitude,

Dr. Laurie Santos

Brought to you by a special sponsor: the friend you’re going to share this with!
