Summary
Finland has once again been named the happiest country on Earth, but its success may not fit the usual American assumptions about Nordic life. The country ranks highly not just in life satisfaction, but also in freedom, education, and overall well-being. In this episode, Morning Wire looks at what Finland gets right, what the U.S. often misunderstands about it, and what lessons America might take from its model, with insights from author and Finnish education expert William Doyle.
