Such a comfort listen for me!

I have listened to every single episode during my neighborhood walks. So much to love!

I love the different suggestions from big to small that I can apply daily. And loved the note in the latest episode about the person who is leaving positive feedback for a podcast or book or something each day. What a wonderful reminder to put food energy out in the world! Inspired me!

I adore Gretchen and Elizabeth - I feel like we’re friends. I’ve learned so much from them! Sometimes Gretchen’s energy exhausts me, and I certainly don’t try everything they suggest, but their hacks and “try this at homes” have indeed helped me to be happier, healthier, more productive, and more creative.

I love listening to Gretchen & Elizabeth. Your closeness is evident & it’s so enjoyable to feel included in your conversations. I’ve learned so many great tips. Please help with my dilemma that you mentioned in your latest podcast. It’s tough to clear “clutter“ because of LOVE. Now that I know the problem, I hope you can help with solutions lol.

Podcasts have changed my life. I love them so much, but Happier with Gretchen Rubin is my true favorite! Thank you Gretchen and Elizabeth!!!

I've been listening to this podcast for years and it is still my favorite! It's light, smart and relatable while delivering life hacks and productivity advice so it never gets boring and always feels great to listen to!

I so appreciate these two very different sisters, who are so supportive in spending time together, letting us get a glimpse of their lives through their genuine conversations and sharing the aha moments and listener suggestions. I started listening a couple of years ago and sometimes go back and binge older episodes that I never heard. As I listened today to the Five Love Languages episode from 2016 it really struck me how far you’ve come in self awareness and improved relationships. I cheer you on with each revelation! (How’s that for words of affirmation?!) Thank you!

I first discovered Gretchen years ago when I was in the throes of early motherhood and my husband was often traveling for work. It was lonely at night once my son was asleep and I needed some company while tidying the house, emptying out the stroller, pumping, washing bottles etc. A friend had suggested listening to audio books and I started with The Happiness Project. Now here I am with our second son, having listened to all of Gretchen’s books but not the podcast! What fun it has been during the late night glider hours to listen to Gretchen and Liz. It makes me feel productive just listening - especially during a time when my hands are busy with baby life. I am more “Kate” than ever, I’ve done my 24 for 24 list and I even started a book club here with other mom friends! Thank you for the motivation to be me, the tips, the laughs and the company when everyone else is sleeping.

I've been listening to Gretchen and Liz for years and love how upbeat their podcast is. They've continued to help me to clarify so many areas of my life!

I always pick up helpful gems-this week was about the transcript function on Apple Podcasts. Thank you . Alison Schuback

I first read The Happiness Project when I lived in NYC and I loved the easy, no stress approach! I came to the podcast late, but I absolutely love the same easy, no stress ideas and hints/hacks to help with every aspect of life: parenting, relationships, travel, hobbies, holidays! I regularly implement ideas from the show and the yearly “24 in 24” list is my absolute favorite. I make my family do all the quizzes and I am constantly recommending the podcast, along with the Four Tendencies framework, to everyone. Thank you Gretchen and Liz for the inspiration; I love your relationship and it’s fun to listen to you both every week!

Been listening for years now and it feels like meeting up with friends who live with keen awareness and purpose. Inspiring!

What a wonderful podcast. I love Gretchen’s books and blog, and the podcast is a little snippet I look forward to. It has easy to digest bites of happiness advice that are very applicable and easy to implement.

I love this podcast and Gretchen Rubin! She is my happiness guru.

I think this podcast has genuinely made my life better. It not only makes me happy; it gives me big ideas to think about and simple tools to improve.

I have been a fan of Happier since the very early days. It would be an understatement to say that this podcast has changed my life for the better. The insights and suggestions shared truly help me to be more happier. That’s priceless! Thank you Gretchen and Liz for 9 years of guidance.

This podcast has had such a big impact on my life - I even created a spinoff podcast to discuss and debrief each episode with my sister! If you’re looking for practical, whimsical, timely advice to help you be more happy and more productive, this podcast could be the game changer you’ve been looking for.

This is my favorite podcast. I never miss an episode! There are always good tips, tricks, and thoughts to motivate me to make my life better. Thanks, Gretchen, Liz, and the Happier team!

Nothing makes me happier than seeing this podcast in my feed!

Why have I never reviewed this amazing podcast?!? I have listened every week since the first year, and i get a jolt of joy every time I see a new episode. The hosts are fantastic and I have gotten so many ipa to make my life happier over the years. Highly recommend!! Bonus: the content tends to be pretty classic and not time bound so it’s one you could start anytime and back episodes would still be very relevant!

I wish I could offer 5 stars for content and 1 star for "listenability." The show brings great tips, hacks, and information HOWEVER I not only listen to but deeply appreciate every commercial. The reason? It's almost the ONLY time Elizabeth can speak a complete, coherent thought / statement without Gretchen's irritating interjections. As a Mental Health provider, I understand and appreciate the concept of offering "minimal encouragers" to a speaker but (in a therapy setting) Gretchen would overbearingly dominate and overwhelm the session. Since Elizabeth (and various guests) obviously desire to share information AND this is not a visual media (where a nod would be a minimal encourager) the constant comments are unnecessary; my finger has hovered over the 'unfollow' option on many occasions.

I’m a long time listener and have enjoyed this podcast and all the tips and hacks for living a better life. I often listen while exercising or driving so I wish the show notes were a little more robust, I often forget something I want to try. And while I think Gretchen offers many interesting products it does feel a bit too self promotional with all the journals and app tools.

I love this podcast. I first discovered it 2 years ago and have listened every week since. I appreciate the structured approach while it also doesn’t feel too stiff/ routine. I’ve incorporated so many of the concepts talked about but the mere act of listening to this podcast brings me a sense of peace and contentment as well.

At the creation of Happier, the podcast brought novel ideas, and it felt very engaging and useful. Now it feels like self-promotion. Gretchen does a lot of “advertising” for her products. The subject matter has downshifted from occasionally wise to often trite. Maybe too much of a good thing?

The hosts are smart and positive and offer actionable ideas on everything from relationships to home organizing to fun. I look forward to every episode and am usually inspired to make my life better.

I discovered this podcast about a year ago and I actually went back and listened to every episode. That took a lot of time, but it was worth it. I’ve learned a lot of excellent tips for how to maintain good habits, how to incorporate outer accountability, and small ways to boost happiness. Very easy to incorporate incorporate such great advice.

I have been listening since episode 15, and while my interest waxes and wanes depending on what’s going on in my own life, I feel like the podcast has always been consistent. People complain about the uptick in ads, but the ads are fewer than traditional radio would have, and there’s a skip button available. Besides, the show has to pay for itself somehow. I also don’t mind Gretchen promoting her products and tools—-this is her podcast for people who value her work, so promoting to that audience makes sense, and I was surprised to find that others felt it was too much. I think too many people give 1-star reviews to podcasts that just aren’t for them. I think the podcast meets its own goals well, and I really enjoy it. Gretchen and Liz feel like friends who have very different lives from me, but it’s neat to get a glimpse.

Keep bringing us great information and conversation

I absolutely love this podcast! I used to listen to a few different happiness-related podcasts and once I found Happier, it’s become my one and only fave! Listening to sisters Gretchen and Elizabeth is so enjoyable, they are so warm and relatable. Each episode provides the most useful, fun and manageable hacks for happiness- currently going back and listening to the full catalogue of available episodes. I’m a full Happier podcast convert and am looking forward to my 24 for 2024 list and one-word theme for 2024!

This podcast helps me to keep growing and learning. I love living in an atmosphere of growth. I’m excited to focus more on the 5 senses and am using this year’s challenge and the journal to work on my goal. A dear friend sent me 5 senses gifts for my birthday, so creative. Thank you Gretchen for broadening my focus.

Loved the show on your word for the year 2024! I loved my 2023 word "Simplify " so much that I plan to keep it on repeat for 2024. Here is a listing of everything I now Simplify daily in 2023 ...my meals, my shopping, my cleaning, my finances, my laundry , my closet, and my hobbies. I plan on continuing this journey because it has been an absolute game changer! I plan to keep it on repeat for 2024 because it's been an absolute game changer! Hoping to hear your 24 intention for 2024 soon! M

I really, really love this podcast. Information is so very practical and so insightful! It makes me a little happier to listen to it! Thank you both.

I have been a listener for many years - since the beginning. I’ve called in to share our non-traditional Christmas Eve tradition and been to see Gretchen in Boston. For the past 1-2 years, this podcast has progressively turned into an unceasing promotion for Gretchen’s new paid platform and books. WE are your super fans - believe me, we know you have a book coming out. The holiday promotions are too much - this podcast no longer makes me happier, which makes me super sad because it was a highlight of my week for many years.

I think I got into this podcast shortly before Covid hit, and then binging on it during the pandemic was really helpful for my mental health. Nowadays, Liz and Gretchen feel like friends! I think of and quote their content on a weekly basis, I’m sure.

I enjoy the thoughtful conversations that Liz and Gretchen allow us to listen into each week.

It helps me get prepared and relaxed it makes all the stress go away it is so nice to know that I have a HAPPY place to go to in any situation This podcast will surely make all the stress go away in one episode.I love love love this podcast I will never listen to any thing but this podcast.I can listen literally at any moment,when I am cleaning,shopping anytime anywhere.

Happier was the first podcast I ever followed… and it’s still my favorite. The hosts blend research, thoughtfulness and real life examples to create excellent content. I was delighted when they added their every other Saturday bonus episodes called “More Happier”

I LOVE this Podcast! I listen to everything these two put out and they have changed my life in countless small ways. I learn something each time I listen and always look forward to listening while on a walk. It’s like a good conversation about life with a close friend.

I have been listening to this podcast for around a year and really enjoy the content and advice. I have listed too many of the back episodes to get my fix while waiting for new episodes. I love Gretchen and Elizabeth’s relationship which reminds me of conversations with my sister and I look forward to their yearly 2X in 202X lists!

I have been a listener since 2019 and I still look forward to each new episode that comes out! As an anxious person and an obliger this podcast helps ground me by enabling me to focus on the small, realistic ways in which I can improve my life. Thank you, Gretchen and Elizabeth!

I love the sister conversations and honesty mixed with facts and ways that we can connect with ourselves, find mor awareness and find more joy in life! I have used so many of their tips over the years from this podcast. Thanks for this delightful breath of fresh air and for sharing your hearts and insights as working mothers and creators.

Great podcast! I never miss an episode.

Great podcast that always comes up with fresh ideas for pursuing happiness, staying organized, important life hacks and more. The Obliger in me always makes sure I don’t miss an episode!

Gretchen and Elizabeth bring so much Happiness to my week! I look forward to new episodes and always enjoy their tips, discussions, and sisterly love for each other!

Love your podcast!

I have been listening to Gretchin and Elizabeth for years. The Happier podcast is refreshing with many ideas on how to make life happier, fulfilling, funny, efficient, etc. The sisters both have great voices and you feel like you're sitting there with them, drinking coffee. I love the "Little Happier", too!

I just started listening today(9/13/2023) I started from the very beginning and I absolutely love this podcast so far. Today I am listening on a 9hr drive to Rochester MN💜 I am hooked!!!💜 Thank You 😊

I listen to tons of podcasts, and this is one of the few that I keep coming back to after hundreds of episodes. It’s given me both practical, doable tips and bigger life-changing ideas over the years. If Gretchen and Liz were in a play, they’d be the big sister and best friend who made everything a little better. I am always happier when this shows up in my feed.

I am an original listener but my initial review was some time ago. I appreciate the way these sisters interact and have allowed the podcast to morph over time to reflect changing issues and interests. I enjoy the hacks and interviews, suggestions and banter. Keep up the good work sisters.
