"We've been told that achieving our own success will make us happy. But happiness comes from helping other people to live happier lives." Stephanie's childhood joy revolved around self-expression —corralling her siblings and neighbors to put on musicals, performing with a voice-altering karaoke machine, reading, and making things. It's what shaped a lot of her early years. For many years, she "lost" that self-expression and only started to re-discover it again in her late 20s. What she learned is that acceptance of the creative process is a rejection of everything that she had been conditioned to believe: "You have to be perfect." "You can never make mistakes." "You have to follow this set path." "You have to know exactly where you're going." These are lies. Creativity has none of that. You must let go of those ideas to do things according to your creativity. Today, Stephanie Harrison is an expert in the science of happiness and the creator of The New Happy philosophy and company. Founded in 2018, The New Happy has revolutionized how people understand and pursue happiness. The New Happy reaches millions of people worldwide every month through resources and tools. On May 14, 2024, she will be coming out with a new resource – A book called "The New Happy: Getting Happiness Right In A World That's Got It Wrong." It's described as "the definitive guide to happiness."
