THE JOY PLAN How I Took 30 Days to Stop Worrying, Quit Complaining, and Find Ridiculous Happiness

Narrator Christina Moore inhabits the soul of this audiobook by a likable writer and entrepreneur who had to pull herself out of depression when her business collapsed. Moore's pleasing vocal tone and conversational rhythms are perfect for expressing the author's beguiling sincerity and faith in the goodness of the universe. More than a feel-good audio, Kaia Roman's book is a nifty blend of autobiographical vignettes and detailed insights about the biology of emotions, which together give her compact advice appealing gravitas. Chatty writing and a steady supply of her personal success stories make her advice sound true: Anyone depressed or unhappy with their life can learn what gives them joy--and then do those things and think those things that create that joy day after day.
