Science has found that truly happy people all have one thing in common, they’re working toward something that matters to them.
In this quick Science of Happiness episode, I break down what the research says about meaningful goals and lasting wellbeing.
You’ll discover what type of goals bring real joy and which type of goals will leave you feeling empty, what to keep in mind when setting goals and how you can set them to inspire action instead of fear.
If you’ve been feeling stuck or unmotivated lately, or simply want to live your happiest life, this might be the little shift you need.

This episode blew my mind.
I sat down with a tech wellness expert to talk about something most of us never think about — the invisible effects of EMFs and everyday technology on our health and our families.
We covered everything from what EMFs actually are to how they may affect our bodies, fertility, pregnancy, and even our kids’ developing brains.
Then I put her in the hot seat — rapid-fire style — to rate how “bad” our modern conveniences really are: baby monitors, cell phones, AirPods, fitness watches, WiFi routers, and even electric cars.
We also talked about realistic ways to reduce exposure without giving up your tech, whether EMF blockers really work, and why blue-light blockers are a must for little ones.
This conversation will leave you questioning how “safe” our digital world really is and what small changes could make a big difference in your family’s health.

In this Science of Happiness episode, I dive into one of the biggest myths we’ve all been sold: that happiness comes when our circumstances change.
From lottery winners who return to their baseline within months, to the cultural “happily ever after” stories we grew up on, the science shows that lasting happiness isn’t found outside of us, it’s built from within.
In this solo episode, we break down the research, redefine what happiness really means, and share why effort (not ease) is the secret to a more meaningful, fulfilling life.
Walk away with one powerful reflection you can use today to stop waiting for “someday” and start living happier now.

You’ll learn how to support your nervous system, set healthy boundaries, find joy in movement, and build a strong, lean body you love—without the endless stress.

Ever wonder if it’s time to pivot or completely shut your things down? You know I have and in this conversation, you're going to hear my dear friend Samantha Skelly share her experiences and wisdom too.
Together, we have a real candid conversation about entrepreneurship that honestly I wish I would have heard years ago, we talk:
Samantha is the founder of Pause Breathwork, the world’s leading breathwork brand, an international speaker and bestselling author, and host of The Can’t Be Contained Podcast.
Her trauma-informed approach to healing through breathwork has impacted over 500,000 people worldwide and she’s shared the stage with leaders like Tony Robbins, Marie Forleo, and Marianne Williamson. She knows what it means to build success without losing yourself.
If you’re craving alignment, purpose, and a way of doing business that actually nourishes your life, this one’s for you.

Did you know that science says 50% of your ability to be happy comes from your genes? It’s called your genetic set point—and while some of us may come from naturally happier parents, others of us inherited emotional patterns that make happiness more of a challenge.
But here’s the good news: knowing this is power.
50% is set at birth (nothing you can do there).
10% comes from life circumstances (and surprisingly, it matters less than we think).
And the other 40%? That’s completely in your control.
In this episode of A Hit of Happiness, I’ll walk you through what this science means for your life, why your habits matter more than you realize, and how effortful, intentional activities can actually rewire your happiness.
If you’ve ever felt like happiness is out of reach, this quick episode will leave you with hope—and the tools to start changing it today.

So many of us live in the gray area of mental health—not officially diagnosed with depression, but still feeling apathetic, exhausted, unmotivated, and disconnected from life. I call it “debatable depression.”
In this vulnerable episode, I share my personal experience living in that in-between space, the warning signs I ignored, and the subtle ways it showed up in my daily life. Most importantly, I’ll walk you through the simple, science-backed habits that helped me break free and stay depression-free for the past two years.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re “not bad enough” to ask for help, but also not okay—you’re not alone. This conversation will give you hope, practical tools, and permission to start making changes that truly support your mental health.
✨ Inside this episode:
What “debatable depression” looks and feels like
How to recognize early warning signs before they escalate
The simple daily habits that helped me anchor my mental health and beat debatable depression for the last 2 years
Why habits for emotional wellbeing matter just as much as habits for success
Remember: I’m not a clinician—just sharing my story and what worked for me. If you’re struggling, please reach out to a licensed therapist or mental health professional.
