Choosing Happy without Avoiding the Tough Issues
I enjoy listening to Amy’s show at home while I am tidying up or cooking. Amy is upbeat yet doesn't avoid the tougher questions that get us to reflect on how to uplevel our lives by unlocking happiness. She has a variety of guests who come from different backgrounds and perspectives. I learn something of value from each of them. The show is enjoyable and makes me feel like I’d like to hang out and have dinner with any of her guests.
Unlocking Happiness is my favorite Monday fix!
The guests on this show have some incredible stories! Love listening to this every week!
Referred By A Friend - Reluctantly Subscribed, Still Listening
A friend shared an episode about a dude who broke his neck and then started a business. I pinched a nerve, which is terrible as a musician, and had some issues continuing with work. I heard this episode and it jolted me off my a$s.
I still listen. Most of the guests have some pretty awesome tips.
So, thanks Amy for finding some cool people with inspirational stories!
