Support Joy Lab!

We’re on a mission to help folks reduce symptoms of chronic stress, depression, and anxiety by helping folks tap into their authenticity, build resilience, and uncover their joy.

At the Joy Lab Program and Podcast, we focus on helping individuals apply the 12 Elements of Joy into their daily life. These Elements go beyond the usual mental health tools to help folks build resilience, deepen their sense of connection and meaning, and create a more joyful and flourishing life.

This approach is science-backed and practical. Many mental health podcasts lean heavily into romantic relationships, a focus on dysfunction, or neuroscience without making it practical.

This leaves an opportunity for:

A mental health podcast that goes beyond marriage and relationships.
A podcast that blends scientific research with actionable steps.
Simplifying mental health concepts into daily routines.
Bridging the gap between therapy and self-help (what to do between sessions with a therapist or psychiatrist).

Your contribution helps in every production phase of the Joy Lab Podcast (including keeping it free of intrusive advertisements!). Your generosity also allows us to deliver the Joy Lab App to folks at no cost and to offer the Joy Lab Program at a reduced cost compared to comparable programs. And of course, your donation makes you an essential co-creator for future programming and development of new tools and opportunities to help folks improve mental health in meaningful and lasting ways.
