ABOUT

Mercedes and Anastasia Korngut are two teen sisters, co-founders of the company, Small Bits of Happiness, and hosts of the podcast Hack Your Happiness, which ranked in the top 15% of videos on Spotify in 2024.  Their mission is to help individuals of all ages find more happiness in daily life.  They have reached over four million teens and adults, and on their podcast they interview iconic individuals - from bestselling authors like Malcolm Gladwell, to Olympians like Penny Oleksiak, and professors like Angela Duckworth and Cal Newport, to Oscar winners and screenwriters.  They share what brings them happiness and offer advice to teens.  As two teens, Mercedes and Anastasia understand firsthand the difficulties of teenage-hood, including not only the hormonal changes that tweens and teens undergo, but the added stressors of war, post-pandemic life, and beyond. The two have been featured on national news and media, spoken at schools and conventions across North America, as well have designed a series of happiness-wellness products for tweens, teens, adults and schools.
