About this listen

 Discover how the happiest people on earth survive—and thrive—through tough times using inner strength and courage.

Sisu is a powerful mindset that makes Finland one of the happiest countries in the world, despite long winters, social isolation, and a history of challenging times.

In Everyday Sisu, journalist Katja Pantzar explores the simple practices that make Finnish life so stable, sustainable, and healthy for body and mind, even when life doesn’t go as planned. You’ll discover ways to boost your mental and physical resilience to face life’s challenges head-on, including:


• connecting with nature
• strengthening community
• using what you have
• reframing what you can’t control
• adopting a solutions mindset
• finding strength in the struggle

Featuring insights from Finnish experts in mental health, wellness, sustainability, social justice, and more, this practical and empowering guide presents a road map for overcoming what you thought you couldn’t—and finding hope and tools to create a brighter way forward.

I didn’t expect this to be such a life story about the author, she just keeps talking about herself… I thought it would be more about how to adopt these ways but she just can’t stop talking about herself… maybe I got the wrong idea before I bought the audiobook 😞

More of a life story than helpful tools/way of life to take on
