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
Super fan review
In a world where podcasters go offline during the summer, Gretchen and Liz not only show up but ADD an every-other Saturday more-happier segment! Their dedication is only matched by their clever and delightful rapport. I learn something new about them and myself with each episode. Happier is a rare gem - intelligent, relevant, and applicable content.
Ditch the constantly virtue-signaling sis
Gretchen needs to talk to Elizabeth or find a replacement. Elizabeth consistently, and unnecessarily, discusses or alludes to political and/or divisive topics. Elizabeth can discuss these on her show. It’s become progressively worse over the years.
I tried to give Gretchen another chance, as I believe her ideas provide value, however her sister is just unbearable. Gretchen may feel the same way, but typically does not push it like Elizabeth. Very disappointing. As Michael Jordan said, “Republicans buy shoes too”…
Fun ladies
I love this podcast. Why don’t they have their own talk show? Elizabeth is a comic unrealized. I know she writes for tv, but boy would I love to see her in a sitcom or movie. I love her relaxed comical interjections that bring a smile to my face. She so relatable to all of us. These ladies feel like my very own life coach /counselor via podcast. Y’all make me happier. Love you two
