Welcome to addJOY
addJOY is more than a company—it’s a call to live on purpose.
Founded by psychologist Dr. Kanika Bell and educator Mari Newport, addJOY helps people reconnect with what truly matters: themselves, their communities, and the JOY hidden in everyday life.
Through our signature JOY Coaching services, custom workshops, and our powerful JOY Formulas (CBT-based tools that turn insight into action), we guide individuals, schools, and organizations toward more clarity, connection, and emotional wellness.
Whether you’re listening to our podcast for a weekly dose of laughter and light, joining a coaching session to reset your mindset, or bringing us into your school or workplace for a JOY Experience, one thing’s certain—we’ll help you turn your ordinary moments into JOYful ones.
​
Because when you add JOY, the sum of your life is always greater.


Calling All JOY Jawns!
