Meaningful Happiness with Dr. Scott Conkright
Meaningful Happiness is a podcast that unpacks the science of emotions, relationships, and personal growth through the lens of Affect Relational Theory (ART), Chronic Shame Syndrome (CSS), and Latalescence—the second act of life where experience, adaptability, and purpose shape our journey forward.
Each episode explores how shame operates beneath the surface, influencing our confidence, connections, and sense of agency. Through deep insights and practical tools, we uncover ways to rewrite our personal narratives, break free from shame-based cycles, and cultivate a life rich in authenticity, curiosity, and joy.
Join me as we dive into the psychological frameworks and real-world applications that help us navigate relationships, self-perception, and the ever-evolving landscape of human experience.
Let’s make happiness meaningful.

Meaningful Happiness with Dr. Scott Conkright
Why Free Speech Matters for Mental Health and Authentic Relationships
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What happens when people stop saying what they really think because they fear shame, conflict, or cancellation? In this conversation, Dr. Scott Conkright and Dr. Chloe Carmichael explore the link between free expression, emotional regulation, authenticity, and mental health. They unpack cancel culture anxiety, social media polarization, viewpoint diversity, and why real safety is not the absence of disagreement, but the presence of respect, honesty, and dialogue.
