ReThinking · What Finnish president Alexander Stubb learned from golfing with Trump · 30 Jun 2026 podcast

I'm listening.

This is Nord-splaining.

But it sounds like Icelandic.

I think it's originally Danish, maybe.

But the basic concept is, like, you follow the law of Jante, and one of the core laws is, like,

It's supposed to be a Nordic code that enforces humility or at least cultivates and nurtures humility.

And it's such an interesting thing to me to think about.

On the one hand, we know the value of humility and leadership.

It reminds you that you don't know everything.

You have lots to learn from the other people around you.

At the same time, politics is not a sphere of life that we associate much with humility.

And I'd just love to hear a little bit about how you walk that tightrope.

I was waiting for you to mention happiness.

How do you think about the Finnish happiness advantage?

I'm so curious about what do you, I mean, obviously there are lots of factors that come into play, but what do you think are the key contributing factors?

Which is still probably understated by American standards.

You mentioned the education system, which also has been, I think, a great source of Finnish pride for a long time.

One of the things that I was blown away by when I studied the Finnish education system was just the amount of care and attention that goes to each student to say, we want to bring out the best in every student.

And so instead of like the American, no child left behind, in Finland, the goal is for every child to get ahead.
