10% Happier with Dan Harris · When You Don't Know What You Actually Want: How To Say No, When To Say Yes, and The One Question That Cuts Through It | Yara Shahidi · 31 Jul 2026 podcast

This is How to Be a Better Human. matched

I'm your host, Chris Duffy. matched

This month on our podcast, we are re-examining our relationship to work. matched

We started with psychologist Guy Winch's new book, Mind Over Grind, and we talked about how to prevent burnout and make space for life outside of your job. matched

And then we had financial journalist Matt Levine explain the economy and money stuff to us. matched

But this week we are tackling, to me, the biggest question around work, which is what do you want to do? matched

Figuring out what you want to do is in many ways figuring out who you want to be. matched

What do you want to contribute to the world? matched

What do you want to learn? matched

Who do you want to be surrounded by? matched

What do you believe in? matched

I am quite frankly overwhelmed just saying those questions out loud. matched

I'm not even trying to answer them. matched

But today's guest, Yara Shahidi, is remarkably clear-eyed about tackling life's biggest questions head on. matched

You might know Yara from her award-winning work on the TV shows Black-ish and Grown-ish, but she's also a producer, the host of the Optimist Project podcast, and a Harvard graduate. matched

In other words, Yara has succeeded at the very highest levels across a variety of fields. matched

While I'm getting winded just thinking about my future, Yara is sprinting across the finish line and then circling back to design an entirely new race course. matched

But Yara has incredibly practical, inspiring advice for everyone, even me. matched

So today we are talking to Yara about how to understand yourself, how to understand your goals and what you want to say yes to. matched

To get us started, here is a clip from Yara's TED Talk. matched
