About

Way back in 1997, I wondered where all of the happy people hung out. It was the height of the self-help movement so there was a lot of focus on what you didn’t like about your life.

After the encouragement of friends and strangers in 1998 I started the Secret Society of Happy People to give mostly happy people their own tribe.

After 20 years, and hundreds, maybe thousands, of interviews we dropped the “Secret” because we really weren’t a secret anymore. Now, we’re simply the Society of Happy People…

And, our goals are still the same…

Help people recognize more happiness…

Celebrate more happiness with our three international holidays…
