Stop Guessing About Happiness. Start Building It with Science Supported Tools.
Your Happier Life Toolbox offers a different approach. Born from a late-night, data-driven dad’s quest to decode genuine well-being, this book cuts through the noise. It provides 42 practical, science-backed tools for real life while busting 37 common myths about happiness. You’ll find no gurus or abstract theories, just actionable strategies to help you build a more fulfilling life. Whether you’re navigating burnout or seeking deeper purpose, this toolbox is your comprehensive, research-based guide to reclaiming your joy and designing a life that truly works for you.
I read the research so busy people don’t have to: turning psychology and behavioral science into warm, practical tools without jargon, guilt, or guru vibes.
Billy Marshall isn’t a happiness guru; he’s a data-driven dad from Jersey who got tired of chasing fleeting moments of joy. With a successful career in analytics and a deep love for his family, he approached his own burnout with the same tool he knew best: research. This led him on a journey through hundreds of scientific studies and podcasts, all distilled into a practical system that transformed his life. Billy’s relatable stories of messy, real-world application make the science of happiness accessible to everyone. He’s not a master, but a fellow traveler who’s built a reliable map.
