Hey there, I'm Jessica Lyonford, The More Happy Coach and founder of Project More Happy. I'm all about helping people live their version of happiness, no matter what life throws their way.

As a parent and small business owner, I know how tough it can be to balance everything and still find happiness and fulfillment. But I also know that it's possible to create happiness in all aspects of our lives, and that's what I'm here to help with.

I've been through my own struggles with anxiety, depression, and alcoholism while trying to chase society's version of happiness. But through my journey, I learned that true happiness comes from within. That's why I developed The Eight Pillars of Happiness - eight traits we can all practice to enable more happiness in our lives.

With my background in sociology and advertising, and my personal experiences as a parent, business owner, activist, artist and writer, I'm uniquely qualified to help you find your own version of happiness.

So if you're feeling stuck or unfulfilled, let's work together to cultivate authenticity, confidence, optimism, feeling, purpose, curiosity, gratitude, and compassion. We can create a life that's truly worth living, and have some fun along the way!

The Eight Pillars of Happiness

Confidence. Accept that you deserve happiness.

Authenticity. Your story defines your happiness.

Optimism. Happiness requires finding the good in life.

Compassion. Toward yourself and toward others.

Purpose. Let what motivates you drive you.

Gratitude. Appreciate the good all around you.

Control. Control your emotions to control your journey.

Curiosity. Be open to new opportunities for joy.

My goal with Project More Happy is to add more happiness into the world. And the most impactful way for me to do that is to teach others how to add more happiness into their world.
