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.

A favorite!

First thing I listen to every Wednesday!

Commercial heavy

I have been loving the Happier podcast since the beginning. However, for the last couple of years, the podcast is too commercial heavy. After a while, all episodes starts to sound like commercial, as there is no clear differences between commercial and podcast material. Please make the episodes happy again!
