What Literature Can Teach Us About Being Human | Dr. Hannah

Can a book change your life? In today’s episode of Take Care of Your Body by Ry, I’m joined by Dr. Hannah, an English professor and literary scholar, for a conversation about why literature still matters—and what it teaches us about being human. Together, we explore the intersection of books, psychology, happiness, identity, curiosity, and purpose. We talk about the stories that stay with us long after we’ve finished reading them, why humans are wired to search for meaning, and how literature can help us better understand ourselves and others. Whether you’re an avid reader or haven’t picked up a novel in years, this conversation might change the way you think about stories. In this episode we discuss: 📖 Why literature still matters in today’s world 🧠 The psychology behind the stories we connect with ✨ Happiness, curiosity, and finding purpose ❤️ Books that have the power to change your perspective 📚 Literary recommendations everyone should read ☕ A fun rapid-fire round for fellow book lovers If you’ve ever wondered why certain books feel like they were written just for you, this episode is for you.
