About this listen

Experiments in Happiness is a podcast for high-achieving women who did everything "right"—but still feel like something’s missing. You built the life you were supposed to want… so why doesn’t it feel good? Hosted by Michelle Lemus, a coach, scientist-at-heart, and former workaholic turned joy-seeker, this podcast is part conversation, part real-life experiment. We’re ditching the hustle-for-happiness mindset and getting curious about what actually feels good—not just what looks good on paper. No fluff. No pressure to fix yourself. Just honest reflection, small shifts, and doable experimentsMichelle Lemus Self-Help Success

    What if your inner critic isn’t your enemy, but your earliest protector? In this episode, I share the mindset shift that changed my relationship with that critical voice forever.

This is about compassion, courage, and learning to take the wheel again… even when fear is still whispering.
