Send us a message with any of your thoughts, questions and feedback I'm Fine hosted by Jean Campbell meets Mo Gawdat, engineer, entrepreneur, and one of the world's most prominent voices on happiness and artificial intelligence, to explore grief, love, loss, and what it really means to be okay. Mo reflects on a life of extraordinary professional success that left him clinically miserable in his twenties, the Saturday morning his five-year-old daughter held up a mirror to the person he'd become, and the years of mathematical obsession that led him to reverse-engineer happiness itself.Mo speaks with characteristic precision and unexpected tenderness about the loss of his son Ali in 2014, the teacher who spent 21 years showing his father how to accept life as it is, and whose death became the ultimate test of everything Mo had built. He draws a profound distinction between pain and suffering, reframes grief as displaced love searching for somewhere to go, and offers a vision of death, rooted not in scripture but in quantum physics and the theory of relativity.Mo Gawdat is the former Chief Business Officer of Google X, bestselling author of Solve for Happy, Scary Smart and Unstressable, and founder of the One Billion Happy movement. This is an episode about the algorithm underneath all of it and the losses that proved it true.About I’m Fine:“I’m Fine is more than a Podcast — it’s a service.
