Gretchen Rubin is HAPPIER, and she wants you to be happier too. The #1 bestselling author of The Happiness Project and Better Than Before gets more personal than ever as she brings her practical, manageable advice about happiness and good habits to this lively, thought-provoking podcast. Gretchen’s cohost and guinea pig is her younger sister, Elizabeth Craft, a TV writer and producer living in Los Angeles, who (lovingly) refers to Gretchen as her happiness bully. Part of the Cadence13 Network.

Customer Reviews
One of my favourites
I love this podcast and it never fails to put a smile on my face. The relationship between Gretchen and Elizabeth feels so warm and it’s a comforting listen!
Right place, right time
Started listening to this during lockdown and it’s turned out to be a lot more useful than I expected. Some of the little ‘hacks’ they share have ended up making a big difference to my life and how in control of things I feel. And it’s thought-provoking hearing other listener’s experiences and the advice/thoughts Elizabeth and Gretchen (and sometimes other listeners) share.
Weekly highlight
I cannot recommend this pod highly enough! Giving tips and tricks every week on happiness, it gives pause for thought as well as being fun. Love it!!
