Interested in an advanced degree in positive psychology? I’ll be presenting an overview of the Master of Applied Positive Psychology Program at PCOM and answering your questions on Wednesday, October 9th at 5:30 pm ET / 2:30 pm PT in a virtual MAPP information event. I’ll explain how this program can have a transformative impact on your personal, academic, and professional life. Hope you’ll join us!  You can register here. 

I’m excited to be a core part of PCOM’s collaboration with the Philadelphia Union Foundation in their HeadFirst initiative, an innovative program to strengthen youth resilience and flourishing through soccer. We are in Phase 2 of our rollout and looking forward to working with more players as we move through 2024.

The Happier U program is an adaptation of Happier You that blends sports psychology and positive psychology to help soccer players develop skills to boost their overall well-being.  If you’re interested in supporting our initiative or sponsoring sessions, contact me.

My 3-part “Building Habits of Happiness” series is returning to St. Joe’s Preparatory School in Philadelphia in 2024. I’m looking forward to working with the 9th grade class to awaken their collective and individual optimism, growth potential, value-based decision-making, and positive connections.  I’m looking forward to continuing our work together!
