It all comes back to one question: how do we help people live happier, more connected and more meaningful lives?

Nevriye Yesil, founder of Happiness Circle

Founded by Nevriye Yesil

Nevriye created Happiness Circle from a simple belief: understanding happiness matters, but flourishing rarely happens alone.

Her background in psychology and happiness studies inspired a different kind of community, one where evidence meets experience, strangers become friends, and personal growth leads to meaningful contribution.
