About Me
I'm Jonah Paquette, a clinical psychologist, author, and speaker with a passion for bringing the science of well-being to life.
For more than 15 years, I've dedicated my career to exploring what helps people thrive, both personally and professionally. Through engaging keynotes, interactive workshops, and experiential off-sites, I work with organizations around the world to translate psychological research into practical tools for living happier, healthier, and more meaningful lives.
I'm the author of four books, including Awestruck, Happily Even After, Real Happiness, and The Happiness Toolbox. My work focuses on topics including awe, gratitude, resilience, mindfulness, connection, and the science of human flourishing.
Before expanding my work as a speaker and author, I spent over a decade in healthcare leadership at Kaiser Permanente. That experience gave me a firsthand appreciation for the challenges facing teams and organizations, and continues to inform my approach to workplace well-being.
I've also had the pleasure of sharing my work through numerous media appearances, podcasts, and publications.
Outside of work, I love hiking, traveling, cooking, and spending time with my family. And increasingly, I'm interested in bringing my love of the outdoors together with my professional work through immersive, nature-based learning experiences.
