What do you think would make you describe your life as satisfying and successful? According to the research: friendships!

My guest this week is Robin Dunbar – Prof. Of Evolutionary Psychology at the University of Oxford. Robin's research makes it clear: the single best predictor of your psychological health and wellbeing and your physical health and wellbeing, even how long you will live into the future is simply the number and the quality of close friends that you have.

Join us to discover exactly why friendships are so important, and how to increase the quality of them to experience more happiness.
