Being a goldfish – the Happiest Animal on Earth

Ted Lasso is more than a comical hero in a warmhearted series. His wise words about being a goldfish teaches us about the importance of living in the moment. The gift of presence is hard to appreciate, especially as our lives become more and more undated with distractions, worry, and regret. Let us come together and explore why it’s so hard to be present, and what we can do about it.
