Angie said she and her team were thrilled that Destination Happiness\u2019 uplifting and educational content would reach a bigger audience. <\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s really exciting for a TV show created by a boutique production company in Geelong to get this sort of interest and recognition,\u201d said Angie. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve been inspired to keep making the show by amazing feedback from viewers who have found the show helpful and taken on the concepts to benefit their own lives.<\/p>\n
\u201cTo know that we may be able to spread that message even further is really motivating.\u201d<\/p>\n
In the third season of Destination Happiness, Angie will be joined by star guests Gary Vaynerchuk (Gary Vee), Boost Juice founder and Survivor contestant Janine Allis, Nasir Sobhani, (The Streets Barber), and others. <\/p>\n
The latest season will also shine a light on organisations that are contributing meaningful services to the greater community such as The Mancave and genU.
\nThe popular \u201cRandom Acts of Happiness\u201d segment will see a $30,000 dental makeover awarded to a \u201cdeserving person\u201d.<\/p>\n
A team of nurses will also be surprised with a Hummer ride to Saltair Day Spa. Respected Geelong psychologist Chris Mackey and nutritionist Lola Berry will join Angie on Destination Happiness. <\/p>\n
Angie said depression and anxiety \u201chit hard\u201d in her late 20s \u2013 one of the many reasons she\u2019s been inspired to spread her mental health message. <\/p>\n
\u201cI felt blindsided, like no one had warned me you could possibly feel that bad every day,\u201d said Angie. <\/p>\n
\u201cI was determined to understand how I got into that state, how I could get out of it and how I could stay out of it. I made studying happiness my full-time job. <\/p>\n
\u201cIt was a long slow climb out of the hole I was in, but I came out of it with skills to use for life and I want to do everything I can to raise awareness and hopefully help others.\u201d<\/p>\n
Destination Happiness will be aired on Channel 9 until November 30. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
