What if your happiness isn’t determined by what happens to you, but by where you choose to shine your attention? Life will always have its share of chaos. There will always be problems to solve, expectations to meet, and challenges to overcome. But there is another side to the story. There are people who love you. There are victories you’ve overlooked. There are lessons making you stronger. There are moments of beauty happening all around you. This is the Flashlight Effect. Whatever you repeatedly focus on grows in your awareness. The more you notice what is working, the more resilient, grateful, and hopeful you become. Today, pause for just one minute and ask yourself: What is one thing going right in my life that I haven’t fully appreciated? Your attention is one of the most powerful tools you have. Use it wisely. 💛

Thank you to everyone who joined us live from around the world for our Happiness Circle gathering. Whether you were with us from your living room, your office, or somewhere across the globe, you were part of our circle. Today we explored masculine and feminine energy, the three C's and the three U's, and how understanding one another's deepest needs can transform our relationships. I've attached a few reminders to carry with you this week: the Shopping Cart, the Bullshit Dumpster, and the beautiful song, "You're a Miracle," that we listened to together. Remember, the flashlight of your life is in your hands. Whatever you shine your attention on becomes illuminated. What you appreciate, appreciates. What you focus on grows. Keep the Shopping Cart as a reminder that you choose what you carry through life. And just in case you need it, I'm leaving the Bullshit Dumpster with you. Whenever life hands you something that steals your peace, your joy, your confidence, or your happiness, toss it in. Thank you for being part of this growing global community. I can't wait to see you at our next gathering. Until then, sprinkle the happiness forward, because happiness grows when we share it. With gratitude, Nevriye

Join us live tomorrow as we explore masculine and feminine energy. Not from the lens of stereotypes, but through the lens of self-awareness. Where do you naturally spend most of your time? What are the strengths of each energy? And what might you discover about yourself when you begin to understand them more deeply? See you tomorrow.

Imagine a place where women from every walk of life come together to grow, support one another, and become the best version of themselves. This is more than a community. It’s a circle of genuine friendships, science-backed insights, meaningful conversations, and monthly coaching designed to help you thrive in every area of life. Together, we’ll strengthen our relationships, elevate our businesses and careers, improve our health and well-being, and create lives filled with greater purpose, joy, and connection. No matter where you live, you belong here.💛

She Came for Happiness. She Found Herself. Something beautiful is growing here in Lakewood Ranch. Women are coming together as strangers and leaving as friends. There is something sacred about sitting in a circle, telling the truth about our victories, our struggles, and everything in between. In our next Happiness Circle session, we are going somewhere deeper. We are exploring the masculine and feminine energies living inside all of us, the push and the pull, the doing and the being, the striving and the surrendering. Most of us have been living out of balance for so long we forgot what alignment even feels like. It is time to remember. Come join us live here in Lakewood Ranch or from anywhere in the world. We will be streaming live on Skool, Facilitated by Nevriye Yesil Master of Happiness Studies PhD student of Harvard Professor Dr. Tal Ben-Shahar Founder, Happiness Leadership Institute
