SUBSCRIBE TO THE SCIENCE OF

WELL-BEING AND HAPPINESS

It takes on average 20 years for peer-reviewed
scientific research to make it into the public

sphere and to become commonly accessible
and applicable in everyday life.
Positive Psychologist, life coach, motivational
speaker, and a regular guest on our Chamber

webinars, Erica Terblanche believes that it
doesn’t have to be so.

Referencing a large body of research findings
from the past 25 years, Erica speaks about
the power of science-based tools to support
our happiness and well-being and to address
the global crisis in mental health.

Erica’s passion is to bring the science to
people in accessible, reliable and easy to
understand formats. On Monday 2 October
2023 she launched her YouTube channel Erica Terblanche

Erica Terblanche Thrive Guru - YouTube
towards this goal.
What sets her channel apart is that each episode hones in on one of the building blocks of
happiness and within the space of five minutes gives us the science and the tools to make one

micro-change and over time a meaningful difference in our lives.

This channel has never been more timely than in the aftermath of Covid where one in three
adults are mentally struggling and out of the 18-24 year cohort one in two of our young people
are not coping mentally. Even more relevant for us here at the Chamber of Commerce in the
UK is that the annual and reputable State of Global Mental Health Report places the UK
and South Africa at the bottom of the global mental well-being ladder.

Follow Erica for some weekly insights into the groundbreaking new findings in the fields of
happiness, well-being, neuroscience and what it takes to live a fulfilled and worthwhile life. This
is the future. “
