"Pam clearly reads her audience well, and had of team of skeptics not only laughing and participating, but also actively using the principles of the workshop within hours of her departure...I have never participated in a workshop that was so thoroughly applicable to our daily life, work, and relationships. The return on investment was clear immediately."

Happiness Coach Pam Victor presents evidence-based daily practices
to support your team's resilience, self-care, mindfulness, and positivity in just minutes a day,
plus the tools to make them a lifelong practice.
Interactive programs run from 30 minutes to 30 days!

Workplace wellness is tied to greater productivity, positive collaborations, innovation and creativity, better health, more effective conflict resolution, and so much more. In a 2010 study, Harvard researchers concluded that, on average, for every dollar spent on employee wellness, medical costs fall $3.27 and absenteeism costs drop $2.73. This is a 6-to-1 return on investment!

In service to HVC’s mission to bring more laughter, joy, and ease to the world, Pam directs the three branches of the company: the comedy training center, regular shows, and the professional development and workplace wellness and wellbeing programs, which use improv training exercises to build foundational training skills, such as communication, collaboration, creativity, and happiness.
