Tina Hallis, Ph.D. is a scientist who decided to break away from her career of over 20 years in biotechnology to pursue a new path as a positivity speaker, trainer, and author. Her discovery of Positive Psychology in 2011 motivated her to spread the word about this life changing science that helps people live their best, most meaningful lives. As part of her mission, she became certified in Positive Psychology through the WholeBeing Institute and founded her company, The Positive Edge. Tina now uses her scientific background to translate the research and studies in Positive Psychology so organizations and individuals can use it to achieve more enjoyable work and greater success.

Are You Fighting the Current of Your Own Life?

The first time (and only time) I went white-water rafting, I remember gripping the paddle so tightly my knuckles turned white. The rapids looked wild, the rocks menacing.
