Seasonal Affective Disorder, or SAD, affects millions of people each year. But what causes it, who is most at risk, and is there anything you can do to avoid the winter blues? In this episode, Garvia talks with Dr. Raymond Lam, a psychiatrist and BC Leadership Chair in Depression Research at the University of British Columbia. Dr. Lam shares how daylight and weather can influence our mood, explains why Canadians are more likely to experience SAD, and gives practical tips to help you get through this harsh winter with your happiness intact.

Work is a big part of our lives, and its effects often show up in our relationships, our health, and how we see ourselves. To explore how our jobs influence our happiness and well-being, Garvia talks with Jennifer Moss, a Canadian author and workplace well-being expert who wrote The Burnout Epidemic and Why Are We Here?. Together, they discuss why it’s getting harder to separate our work and personal lives, how to recognize burnout early, and what to do before quitting a job that makes you unhappy.
