I know how overwhelming self-help can feel.
Too many books, too many steps, too much pressure.

That’s why I keep things simple.
Workshops that are easy to follow.
Videos you can return to anytime.
Support that meets you where you are—online or in person.
And all at a price that doesn’t add stress.

Like Laurie said, growth doesn’t have to be overwhelming.
It can be gentle, doable, and kind.

Part pep talk, part rebellion, very practical.
If the world feels loud and gross and you can’t make yourself care, this one’s for you. We talk about practical optimism (realistic, not “everything’s fine”), how to move from disenchanted → enchanted in small steps, and what to try on days when feeling good feels out of reach.
You’ll get nervous-system first aid, micro “caught beauty” practices, art-in-live-time experiments, and ways to create safe pockets of meaning for yourself and your people. This isn’t about fixing you. It’s about finding workable levers again.
I’m also inviting you to catch the world being beautiful this week—photo, sentence, voice not, and send it in so we can feature a few next episode.
If this resonates, my new self-paced program Everything Sucks, Now What? is open on pre-sale inside Positive Pulse. It starts Oct 5. Pre-sale is $88 (or $44×2) until September 21st, then it’s $111. If your heart perked up, grab the lower rate.

This episode is creative/philosophical support, not medical advice.

Happiness wasn’t handed to me.
I built it on top of addiction, silence, and skeletons that still rattle when I celebrate.
In this solo confessional, I share what had to die for me to become this loud about love... from K-holes and bloody journal pages to guerrilla art and practical optimism.
This isn’t a tragedy story. It’s the truth behind my work, and why joy became my rebellion, play became my protest, and wonder is the work I’ll never stop doing.
I talk about how I:
- ended up finding myself through guerrilla art- was called boring by my boyfriend- was inspired by David Goggins in a surprising way- don't believe in "one arc" or turning point- my deconstructed my 3 childhood recurring dreams and how they gave me insight into my childhood trauma- am not my best student- JUST realized why I'm drawn to my two biggest hobbies (live on air)... I cry in this one
My new program is called "Everything Sucks, Now What?" and if you feel like life sucks, you're disconnected, or are OVER it. It's on discount/pre-sale now... available only inside the Positive Pulse. Uncustomary.org/Positive-Pulse

🌈 Someone told me that I’m the reason that rules exist and I think they might have meant it as a dig but I was deeply honored. 💃

Once, someone told me he was in 📍 New York and saw a 🪧 sign that said, “Please Don’t Smoke Cr*ck In This Hallway”. 😂

Rules only exist because someone did something once and people realized they didn’t like it and didn’t have a way on the books to effectively punish them, so they had to enforce it retroactively.

🐊 I am proud to be the reason weird laws like, “You can’t walk your alligator down the the road on Mondays” in Texas exist. And I wouldn’t have it any other way. 😜

🫧 It’s happening! Baltimore’s Bubble Parade is BACK for the 9th year, but this time, we’re going full-on flash mob style.

We’ll gather outside the golden domes across from Patterson Park ⛪ (right by the Ukrainian Festival!) and do a 30-minute eruption of bubbles, music, and joy. Bubble blasts, dancing in the street, props, chants, and one big finale photo. 💃🌈

Here’s what to bring:

💛 Bubbles of all kinds (bottles, wands, bubble guns, machines)
💚 Fun outfits (angel wings, rainbow boots, costumes; the weirder the better!)
💜 $1 if you’d like to grab a wand (limited supply)
🩵 Your playful, open-hearted spirit

This is free, family-friendly, and likely to make strangers stop and say: What WAS that?!

📅 Sunday, Sept 28
📍 Across from Patterson Park (outside St. Michael’s Ukrainian Church)
🕔 2:30-3 sharp; be on time, it’s a flash mob!
💸 Free to attend. Donations to support future joy projects are warmly welcomed
🌍 Part of the 11K Acts of Merriment project

Will you be there blowing bubbles with us? 🫶

🥴 You’re right. Everything sucks. So now what?

💔 You’re not broken. The world is.

That’s why I created Everything Sucks. Now What? A weirdly comforting, self-paced experience for when you feel numb, disconnected, or just DONE.

🌀 It’s a mix of philosophy, creative rituals, absurd humor, existential curiosities when life feels unbearable.

Inside you’ll find:

🎧 Existential pep talks
📞 A hotline to scream into the void
📼 Survival guides & creative prompts
🃏 Philosophy cards & playful challenges
🫂 Optional live calls + community space

It’s not about “fixing” you. It’s about helping you feel a little more alive, on your own terms.

⏳ Pre-sale pricing ends Oct 4.

Not everyone will clap for your joy. Some people might judge, deface, or even tear it down. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t worth doing. In this episode of Merriment Mondays Live, Mary England challenges the idea that “you couldn’t do that in my town” and shows why boldness belongs in every zip code.

Inside this episode:

💕 What guerrilla/public joy art really is (beyond murals and spray paint)
💕 The fears that hold us back—judgment, safety, accessibility, and more
💕 Practical tips for staying safe and confident while spreading joy
💕 How to reframe rejection and build resilience
💕 Why art isn’t the only way: other forms of everyday merriment
💕 How to join the 11K Acts of Merriment Project and add your joy to the map
