The Happy Me Project

A no-nonsense guide to personal development, with real-life advice, for the skeptics of self-improvement.

Self-development used to be something confined to a very particular sect of society and it all seemed a little outlandish for a huge chunk of the population, but now it’s time for self-development to stop trying to be fancy and start becoming the norm.

Fed up with your daily routine? Crippled with self-doubt? Exhausted from people-pleasing? Or simply facing a particularly challenging time? Whatever your circumstance, Holly Matthews has friendly and accessible advice on how to face life’s challenges head-on and find the moments of joy again. It’s a light-hearted approach with a powerful message behind the words.

Holly shares her own stories of triumph over adversity. In 2017 Holly became a widowed mom of two girls when her husband Ross died from brain cancer. Before this, Holly worked as a television actress for years and experienced the emotional ups and downs that come with growing up in the public eye. By opening up about her own vulnerabilities, Holly hopes to give others the confidence to face their own bumps in the road, big or small.

The Happy Me Project is 60 short, powerful chapters of straight-to-the-point self-help that you can dip in and out of as needed. Each page gives you practical guidance from someone who lives and breathes what she teaches, with real-life examples and actionable techniques to test out at home.
