Peter Samuelson shares how his transition from successful film producer to nonprofit founder has led to his greatest happiness and inspired his new book "Finding Happy."
• Produced iconic films like "Revenge of the Nerds" and "Wild"
• Co-founded Starlight with Steven Spielberg to help seriously ill children
• Created First Star to propel foster youth to college success
• Started EDAR (Everyone Deserves A Roof) providing mobile shelters for homeless individuals
• New book "Finding Happy" combines life lessons with film industry anecdotes
• Identifies three levels of happiness: short-term (immediate pleasure), medium-term (security), and long-term (helping others)
• Believes creating "ripples on the pond" by helping others leads to lasting fulfillment
• Teaches Random Acts of Kindness classes where foster youth get to donate money to causes they care about
• Emphasizes the importance of empathy in healing societal divides
• Advocates for embracing failure as a necessary part of success
• Notes the powerful connection between foster youth and music due to its portability
"Finding Happy" releases June 10th through Simon & Schuster and will be available in hardcover, paperback, audiobook, and e-book formats.
