Stay Curious, Stay Young: How Childlike Curiosity Improves Performance & Happiness

When was the last time you approached life with the curiosity of a child?

Somewhere along the way, we become so focused on achieving, succeeding and getting things right that we forget how to play, explore and simply enjoy the experience.

In this episode of You Don’t Know Jack, Dr. Jack Groppel and Dr. Haley Perlus explore the power of childlike curiosity and its role in performance, happiness, longevity and living a fulfilling life.

We discuss how staying curious can help us embrace new experiences, continue learning, find joy in everyday moments and bring more fun into our personal and professional lives.

Whether you’re an athlete, leader, parent or simply someone who wants to get more out of life, this conversation is a reminder that growing older doesn’t mean losing your sense of wonder. Life is hard. Let’s prepare for it.

Subscribe to You Don’t Know Jack for conversations about performance, purpose and living a meaningful life.
