Dr. Carolyn Rubenstein - Harvard & Happiness
Why I wanted to interview Dr. Carolyn Rubenstein
One of the reasons why I created The Psychology Podcast was because I wanted to learn personally from the best psychologists in the world and share my discoveries directly with you. Dr. Carolyn Rubenstein knows a thing or two about being the best, she graduated summa cum laude from Duke University and received her M.A in Psychology from Harvard University.
Attending Harvard University is still on my dream bucket list, and I was curious what it feels like to study in the William James Hall in Cambridge, so I reached out to Dr. Rubenstein and asked her.
Besides her outstanding achievements as a psychologist, Dr. Carolyn Rubenstein wrote a book about her work with childhood cancer survivors, the lessons she learned from that time concern every human being who was ever confronted with suffering.
