About this episode

Alison O'Leary discusses the impact of micro-kindness on happiness and wellbeing, sharing personal stories and a 30-Day Kindness Challenge.

In this episode: Have you ever stopped to think how much difference a tiny act of kindness can make - not just to someone else, but to you ? In this episode, I dive into one of my favourite happiness hacks of all time - micro-kindness . Not the grand, cinematic gestures that get social media applause, but the everyday moments that no one sees. The ones that keep our collective humanity ticking along. You’ll hear a story that I absolutely adore - about sticky notes, strangers, and something called The Society of Mundane Distinctions . It’s a reminder that we all have the power to create invisible ripples of happiness just by noticing and acknowledging what others quietly do right. And yes, there’s even science behind it. You’ll learn how kindness boosts your own wellbeing, strengthens your relationships, and sparks a contagious effect that spreads far beyond what you can see. Plus, I share my 30-Day Kindness Challenge - a simple, practical way to weave micro-kindness into your daily life. Come join me in this one. It might just be what you need. - - - 𝗔𝗟𝗜𝗦𝗢𝗡 𝗢’𝗟𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗬 𝗕𝗜𝗢: Alison is a highly experienced, certified life and career coach and is an active ideal life…
