In this episode of the Make Happiness Happen podcast, I’m sharing our second Happiness Habit: Anchoring Your Heart in Prayer.

We’ll talk about why prayer isn’t a performance or a list of perfect words, but a simple, honest conversation with God. I share how prayer brings peace during stress, helps us release what we can’t control, and reminds us that we’re never alone — even in life’s hardest moments.

If you’ve ever felt unsure how to pray, unworthy of prayer, or disconnected from God, this episode will gently encourage you to start right where you are. Together, we’ll explore how prayer can shift your focus, calm your heart, and become a powerful foundation for authentic happiness.

In this first episode of our new Happiness Habits series, we’re talking about the one habit that truly changes everything: gratitude. Gratitude is more than polite words — it’s a heart posture that helps you notice the blessings God has placed in your life, even when things feel messy or uncertain.

Today, we’ll explore what gratitude really is, why it matters, and how shifting your focus from what’s wrong to what’s right can move you from stress and overwhelm to peace and authentic happiness.

Today’s episode is a great reminder that no matter the season you’re in, there is always something to be grateful for. It’s you’re choice my friend and today I encourage you to choose to see the good in life, because even when it doesn’t feel like it, the good is all around you.
