Pamela Gail Johnson started her journey towards creating the Society of Happy People 25 years ago when she was working in the self-help field for the Hazelden Foundation. She worked in publishing and at one of the treatment centers, attending conferences and teaching empowerment workshops. She couldn't help but wonder: "Why were there so few truly happy people?" This led her to start a newsletter, which eventually evolved into the Society of Happy People, an organization dedicated to promoting happiness and creating a community of positivity. Despite the challenges of printing and distributing newsletters in the pre-digital age, Pamela Gail was determined to spread her message and make the world a happier place. On this episode, Johnson discusses her latest project, the "Happiness Unites Tour," which brings people together to bond over happy experiences. She also shares the first principle from her book "Practical Happiness: 4 Principles to Improve Your Life," which is that happiness is personal and everyone needs to find what makes them happy. Johnson also identifies five categories of "happiness zappers" and discusses how to manage them to increase happiness. She also shares her personal experiences with grief and how to navigate changes in life.  What You'll Learn in This Episode: What led Pamela to organize a Happiness Unites tour The first principle discussed in her book on practical happiness Happiness "zappers" and how to manage them How Pamela teaches others to break free from negative thought patterns Pamela's greatest source of joy How support groups like Pamela's can help people to navigate change in their lives Links Mentioned in This Episode: Website | Facebook | Linked In | Instagram | YouTube

Happiness is a subjective term. For each one of us, happiness might mean different things. In the work environment, the meaning of happiness can be narrowed down to when someone enjoys their work and has an optimistic attitude toward life. Pamela Gail Johnson, Founder of the Society of Happy People, is featured in this podcast to share her thoughts on happiness and, most importantly, the theory of practical happiness. She is a Practical Happiness Advocate who helps companies engage employees, increase retention, and boost wellness.

Pamela Gail Johnson founded the Society of Happy People in 1998, created the first three globally celebrated happiness holidays, and is the author of Practical Happiness: Four Principles to Improve Your Life. She was an award-winning salesperson for American Express and Staples, and now helps leaders and teams create happier workplace cultures. - Why is the Society of Happy People even more important today than it was in 1998? - How happiness isn't the “absence of challenges” - How to identify happiness zappers - Happiness zappers in the holidays - Why Practical Happiness is different from other happiness books - The four principles of happiness Free gift!

Negative social media posts. Frightening headlines. Workplace challenges. These are all things that Pamela Gail Johnson, the founder of the Society of Happy People, would label “Happiness Zappers,” and they are a fact of life. The good news is these Happiness Zappers don't have to put a lid on our smiles. “We will all experience at least one or more Happiness Zapper — unhappiness, stress, fear, chaos or annoyances — each day,” Johnson said in a recent interview. “Much of our happiness is based on how we manage the Happiness Zappers.” In her enlightening new book, Practical Happiness: Four Principles to Improve Your Life, Johnson paves a pathway toward authentic joy and fulfillment, with actionable strategies, transformational techniques, and real stories about real people who have put Johnson's principles into practice. “The Society of Happy People identified 31 types of happiness to help you identify more happy moments when they happen,” she added. “Sometimes, we're happier than we think we are; we just don't notice all of the happiness we experience.” In her book, she details four happiness principles for living an authentically more joyful life: • Happiness is Personal • Happiness Zappers Can be Managed • Happiness Changes as You Change • Happiness is Bigger Than You Think These four principles will help readers redefine personal happiness, manage their Happiness Zappers, and become more aware of the happy moments taking place all around them.

Episode 224: Practical Happiness - Interview with Pamela Gail JohnsonWelcome to the Love Your Story podcast. Let me start with a story: A Native American story tells about how god gathered his animal advisers together to help him decide where to hide the Secret to a Happy Life from humans.  He first asked the Eagle, “Where shall I put it?”  The Eagle answered, “I shall hide it at the top of the highest mountain. Man will never find it there.”  God considered this but decided against it. “One day, Man will go there,” he said.  Next, he asked the Clam, “Where shall I put it, little Clam?” “I will hide it at the bottom of the deepest ocean,” the Clam answered. This seemed like a better idea, but the Lord hesitated again.  “Man will go there someday,” he said after some thought. Then the wise Owl stepped forward. “Though I regretfully cannot take it there myself,” he intoned, “perhaps you ought to hide the secret on the moon.”  After considering this, God finally came to the same conclu- sion as before: “No. There, too, Man shall go.”  After some period of reflection, the humble Opossum came forward. “Perhaps,” he said, so softly that he could barely be heard, “the secret should be hidden in the heart of Man.” There was an awed silence among the animals.  Finally, the Lord spoke: “Yes, cunning Opossum, that will be the last place Man will look.”  This story reminds us of something that we already know but are often reluctant to embrace: Our happiness is inside us. The challenge is knowing how to find it.  This story is shared from the introduction of the book, Practical Happiness, by Pamela Gail Johnson who is here today with me on the show.  Tune into the audio program where we are talking about personal happiness. The individual nature of it all, and what makes YOU happy.  Today on the show I have the founder of the Society of Happy People, and the author of Practical Happiness here to support us in intentionally creating our own happy spaces.  Pamela Gail Johnson has helped people understand, expand, and rethink their happiness mindset since 1998, when she found the Society of Happy People. As a mostly happy person, she asked herself, where are all the happy people? She decided they needed their own tribe. Are you one of her tribe, or would you like to be? Yes, of course, who doesn't want to be part of the happiness people tribe. She has started 3 happiness holidays and her new book “Practical Happiness: Four principles to Improve Your Life.” Tune in to the audio program to hear my conversation with Pamela. As I've considered happiness in my own life - I have my own 4 ingredients to happiness: I have determined that happiness is comprised of 1. purpose - without purpose most people are unhappy and unmoored. And, 2. people - we need healthy personal relationships. 3. Gratitude, where we don't ignore all the great blessings in our lives. Gratitude makes you feel like the universe has your back. 4. Fun - whatever is fun for you. Our brains are hardwired to quickly recognize and help us get away from things that can hurt us. This goes back to our caveman days, when we had to protect ourselves from gigantic, hairy, scary creatures and such. Our brains evolved to help us recognize danger and keep us safe. That's why it's always easier, and maybe even more natural, for us to see what's wrong before we can see what's right. Having a positive outlook usually requires a conscious effort until it becomes a habit or our go-to mindset. Practice this mindset. Look for what is going right. Your challenge for this week is to look for what is going right in your life right now. Take 5 minutes, sometime this week, and write a list of the things that make you smile. Then, I want you to put the list someplace where you can see it regularly, and make sure that you're including those happy things in your days. Look for the good, acknowledge...

Pamela Gail Johnson has helped people understand, expand, and rethink their happiness mindset since 1998, when she founded the Society of Happy People at the height of the self-help movement. As a mostly happy person, Pamela asked herself, "Where are all of the happy people?" She then decided they needed their own tribe.  Practical Happiness - Four Principles to Improve Your Life During times of uncertainty and fear, we need to become even more aware of happy, positive feelings to help neutralize unpleasant ones—especially when these are part of a collective experience that many are feeling simultaneously. This book helps readers to consider their own happiness from a different perspective, rather than telling them how to be happy as per the latest scientific study. The four happiness principles in Practical Happiness are a philosophy for living a realistic yet happy life: Happiness is personal, Happiness Zappers can be managed, Happiness changes as you change, and Happiness is bigger than you think Links: Welcome To The Society Of Happy People | SOHP.com (2) Society of Happy People | Facebook Pamela Gail Johnson (@the_real_pamela) / Twitter Pamela Gail Johnson (@therealpamelagail) • Instagram photos and videos
