A New Book by Kristen Houghton
                         
                                  "...AND
THEN I'LL BE HAPPY!"

       Do you suffer from what Kristen calls "The Goldilocks Syndrome?"™  This is the belief that in order for you to be happy,
everything in your life must be "just right." Women especially seem to place their  happiness in the future when everything
will be "perfect."

      "When my relationship is happy, when I have more money, when I'm successful, when my kids have all
       the best in life, when I'm finally thin enough; etc., etc.." Women wait for the perfect time to be happy!  

      In the book, Kristen relates the true stories of real women, including her own, who had put their  "happiness on hold"   
indefinitely, waiting for the "perfect" time to be happy. She then offers solid, realistic solutions for pursuing and creating
your own happiness now.

. . .AND THEN I'LL BE HAPPY!  addresses the two major mind-sets that keep women from truly being happy.

    "The Good Little Girl-(No Matter What Your Age)," women who put the happiness and comfort of others  
     before their own lives. In doing this, they negate the importance of their very own existence.

     "The Unworthies," women who for various reasons have come to feel that they don't deserve to be happy.
      They are never successful enough, pretty enough, thin enough, or have enough money, to be "worthy" of happiness

   A Note from Kristen on ...AND THEN I'LL BE HAPPY!

      Like Goldilocks, many women can't be happy until everything in our lives is "just right." We place the date for happiness   
"somewhere in the future" and by doing that, we waste the present. I think you will find all of the true stories in my book
 as self-revealing and heartfelt as I do. Many women, including me, suffer from the "Goldilocks" syndrome and, because we do,
 we unwittingly sabotage our own chances for happiness.

     As a relationship writer and speaker, I am very excited about my new book,
...AND THEN I'LL BE HAPPY! Addressing  the   
"conditions" we
think we need in order to be happy, my book helps women identify the real reasons we place our own
 happiness last on our exhaustive to-do list and understand why the state of happiness should never be "conditional" for any  
 reason.
