Uncovering The Recipe for Happiness

Becky Morrison is a mom, wife, and lawyer turned Happiness Coach. Her mission is to spread joy. She believes most people can live happier, easier lives if they establish what matters most to them and develop a plan to do more of that and less of the rest. She is the author of The Happiness Recipe: A Powerful Guide to Living What Matters. 

People and processes are at the heart of the work that she has done for the last 20+ years in corporations, law firms—as both a lawyer and administrator—and small businesses. Now she’s using that experience coupled with her own journey to help people supercharge their success and happiness by finding clarity, taking the next steps in their career, overcoming overwhelm, going from idea to action, and stepping into their authentic leadership presence.

Becky tells the story of her transition from a successful, busy lawyer and mom to building a life for her and her family and her happiness. She shares how a life-threatening pregnancy loss led to a wake-up call that would change the course of her life.

As a fellow high achiever, Becky often coaches people who struggle with the fact that they have every type of success they could want but are still waiting for the moment when they are happy with their life. Through this coaching, she has developed The Recipe of Happiness, which is to do more of what matters to you and less of the rest. It’s a simple recipe, but it’s not always easy to execute. She shares about the three things get in the way: the authenticity gap, the execution gap, and the emotional energy gap.

Becky believes in the importance of stepping into your authentic self. We have so much coming at us, and we’re moving so quickly, we are really disconnected from who we are at our core. We’re not sure what actually matters to us, because we’re being told by social media and the world what should matter to us. So Becky shares two ways to get to the core of our authentic selves:

Get clear on the season you’re in, because what matters most to you will shift with your seasons of life. Dial into what brings you joy by making a list of simple things that make you happy and evaluating why those things bring you joy.

One of the biggest obstacles in this process is fear and overwhelm. And overcoming that obstacle starts with saying and naming the story of your fear and overwhelm. Sit down with someone and talk about why you’re feeling afraid and overwhelm. More of than not, it’s not true fear—it’s really that you’re just a human with a nervous system that does not like change
