Happy AF - mind remake project

Welcome to the companion webpage for Happy AF (and Flourishing), my newest book. Happy AF is finally available here!

About the Book

Happy AF (And Flourishing) is a practical, science-backed guide to feeling better—one small step at a time.

Happy AF (And Flourishing) makes a meaningful gift for healthcare workers, including therapists, counselors, nurses, social workers, and other behavioral health professionals. Designed for people who support others for a living, it offers small, science-backed wellbeing practices without pressure or toxic positivity—making it an ideal self-care gift for mental healthcare professionals and educators.

Rather than long chapters or abstract theory, this book offers 365 bite-sized happiness practices, each designed to be doable in real life, even on difficult days. Grounded in positive psychology, cognitive-behavioral principles, and neuroscience, each entry invites a simple shift in awareness, behavior, or perspective—paired with optional reflections and occasional micro-challenges for deeper engagement.

This isn’t a book about forcing positivity or pretending life is easy. It’s about building sustainable habits that support wellbeing, resilience, meaning, and growth over time. Readers can move through the book day by day or jump in anywhere—using what helps and skipping what doesn’t.

Whether you’re feeling stuck, burned out, or simply looking for more moments of joy and clarity, Happy AF (And Flourishing) meets you where you are and helps you move forward—without pressure, guilt, or overwhelm.

This page was created to support—and extend—your experience with the book. While Happy AF (And Flourishing) is designed to be fully usable on its own, this companion space offers additional depth, resources, and flexibility for readers who want to go a little further.

Inside the book, you’ll find 365 bite-sized, science-backed happiness practices—no long chapters, no overwhelm, no pressure to “fix” yourself. Each day focuses on a small, doable shift that fits into real life, even on hard days. This companion page brings those practices to life with supplemental content, optional reading, and curated resources that deepen understanding without making things heavy.

Here, you may find:

Expanded explanations of key concepts and psychological frameworks referenced in the book
Links to reputable articles, quizzes, and research-backed tools
Optional reflections and extensions for readers who want more context or structure
Resources that therapists, educators, and helpers can use personally or professionally

You don’t need to do everything. You don’t need to read every link. This page—like the book—is meant to meet you where you are. Some days, that might mean skimming. Other days, you might dive deeper. Both count.

Happy AF (And Flourishing) isn’t about forced positivity or pretending life is easy. It’s about building small, sustainable habits that support wellbeing, resilience, meaning, and growth—one day at a time. This companion page exists to support that process, not complicate it.

Use what helps. Skip what doesn’t. Come back whenever you need a reset.
