No. 27 From Self-Care to Shared Care: The New Happy Paradigm with Stephanie Harrison
In today’s episode, I’m joined by bestselling author and happiness expert Stephanie Harrison to explore the New Happy paradigm, a revolutionary approach to happiness that breaks down the false barrier between self-interest and collective care. We’re moving beyond the traditional self-care narrative to uncover how true joy can come from uplifting others and cultivating a more connected, purposeful life.
We'll also dive into the individualistic nature of therapy and the “old happy” myth that we need fixing, challenging the idea that happiness is purely a personal endeavor. What if we’re not broken, but simply in need of connection, purpose, and ways to offer our gifts to the world? Stephanie sheds light on how the New Happy shifts the focus from isolated self-improvement to a fulfilling, community-oriented path.
In this episode, we’ll cover:
What the New Happy paradigm is and why it’s vital in this time in history
How to redefine self-interest and self-care with a collective lens
Ways to identify your unique gifts and share them with the world
How to balance your personal needs with contributing to others
How to recognize and shift from an “old happy” mentality to a New Happy mindset
An inspiring story from Stephanie’s book that showcases the power of living in alignment with your gifts
You’ll find yourself feeling inspired, optimistic, and empowered by the close of this episode. Share with friends to spark a conversation and incorporate New Happy principles into your life starting today. You deserve to feel good and do good in the unique way only you can bring to the world.

Your prescription for living well, dose for this week: A practice Stephanie highly recommends to help you figure out what your gifts are — that’s a bit vulnerable AND powerful: Reach out to 5 people in your life and ask them to share what they think are your gifts. We can have a skewed image of ourselves but those who love us don’t see us the same way. As Stephanie says, “Borrow their eyes.” 🥹 You can also find your latent gifts and have the opportunity to practice + develop them. You can craft a life around your gifts. Create space + pockets for those gifts, they benefit you + others. Leverage the power of community to tap into your courage. Everyone has gifts + you are unique and needed by your community. Within your busy life, add in a source of meaning — an hour or two a week. Small shifts in your mindset are a great place to start. Use that time to tap into your gifts + share them in some way. Join us in being a part of The New Happy world of authentic happiness. 🩵💛🩷
