(Re)Designing happiness with Penny Locaso

Certainly the world will be a different place after COVID-19, but there are ways we can design positive outcomes for the future, not just for ourselves but for future generations to come. 

This is the first episode of the (Re)Design Your Life series which will explore how the lives of individuals across the globe are getting on, how their lives have changed, what their coping mechanisms are and insights into what the future holds for us. 

In this episode, Vince chats with Penny Locaso about how her role as a ‘Happiness Hacker’ has prepared her for the COVID-19 experience.

Penny left a successful 16-year corporate career, relocated her family from Perth to Melbourne, left an 18-year relationship and started her own purpose-driven company with the sole intent of positively impacting the lives of others. She’s quite used to drastic life changes.

“Focus on what you can control, not what you can’t”, she says. “You can’t control the situation, but you can always control how you respond to a situation”, she says, “which will impact your mindset. Accept the things you can’t change and ask yourself, ‘how am I going to make sure each day is the best day it can be?’”

A well of sound advice and positive guidance, Penny also shares how she’s adapted her business, BKindred, to virtual working, and how the current need for human connection is actually helping to level the professional playing field.
