An Inspiring Story of Finding Happiness

In this raw and empowering episode, Tamara Zoner—a survivor of a 15-year emotionally abusive marriage—reveals how she turned rock-bottom despair into a thriving career as a science-backed happiness coach.

You’ll hear how she:

  • Escaped financial and emotional captivity with three young children
  • Used the “Passion Test” to reclaim her identity
  • Teaches proven techniques to rewire negativity (backed by neuroscience!)
  • Discovered that happiness is a muscle—not a destination


From viral COVID-era senior center workshops to her upcoming Radiant Happiness Retreat, Tamara’s story proves joy isn’t just possible—it’s teachable.


Your Happiness Roadmap:
  • Happiness is a practice, not a personality trait: Learn daily habits to boost your “happiness set point.”
  • Break free from “stuck” mindset traps: How to spot limiting beliefs (like “I have to make this work”) and replace them with empowered action.
  • Fun is non-negotiable: Why silly walks, karaoke, and cat videos are secretly revolutionary acts of self-care.
