Make Happiness Happen with Shelly Covert
Are you tired of putting on a fake smile? Of pretending you’re happy when you’re really not? Are you ready to stop chasing happiness and create it instead? This world we live in wants us to believe we need to buy something new or bigger or better to be happy, but guess what? That’s NOT real. That’s what inauthentic happiness. Real authentic happiness comes from within. It comes from noticing and appreciating the good things in your life. It comes from saying thank you to your creator. It comes from believing that everything in your life can be used for good, to make you stronger and more courageous. The Make Happiness Happen podcast is going to help you learn how to create authentic happiness in YOUR life. We’ll talk about the importance of gratitude and faith. We’ll learn about different tools to help you cultivate real authentic happiness. Things like a daily gratitude journal, prayer, essential oils and even a cool technique called tapping. So…are you ready to stop faking it and be happy for real? If you said yes, you’re in the right place. Hit “Subscribe” now so you don’t miss an episode!
