Hacking Happiness is a podcast by DOSE that explores what makes us feel good to improve our mental, physical, spiritual and emotional wellbeing. Whether it's a dopamine hit from reaching a career goal. A rush of oxytocin from spending time with loved ones. A surge of serotonin from practising self care or a fitness class that sends endorphins soaring. Everyone's definition of feeling good is very different.


DOSE is a multi-media platform for feel-good content and experiences. The brand now communicates to an audience of over 120,000 readers nationally.
