Domonique Bertolucci

Domonique Bertolucci (born 1970 in Perth, Australia) is an Australian happiness expert, life coach, and author of several books. She is the founder and principal of the Domonique Bertolucci Company, which delivers personal development programs. She previously worked as a model and independent consultant before founding her own firm.
She has written several books that focus on happiness and life-coaching, giving readers the tools to live better lives, including her novels, Your Best Life in 2006 and The Happiness Code in 2012. Bertolucci has become a prominent life strategist and happiness coach, with more than ten million people having "seen, read, or heard" her lessons.
She is a speaker for professional settings. Bertolucci has developed a criterion of goal-setting for her clients and readers that involves ranking values and prioritising those most important, called the Personal Happiness Prescription.
Bertolucci believes that personal happiness is a choice, and maintaining it is a result of the decisions a person has made. She outlines several simple steps to living a happier life that require a change of perspective. Building upon this, she develops a system for long term happiness and balance that would avoid any sense of burnout. This "burnout" she states affects many high-level executives and business-people whose lives are imbalanced due to too much focus on one criterion.
She comments that most people push themselves towards a goal that is not ultimately consistent with their life values. They put much more time and energy into goals and possessions that will not fundamentally increase their happiness. Trying too hard at any one thing, whether it be career or relationship oriented, will have detrimental effects that reduce overall life satisfaction. She coaches even small steps towards this goal, minor increments perhaps, are enough to begin simplification, leaving a person "relaxed and happy, instead of stressed and overwhelmed".
She is an author of several books on achieving happiness and success through several techniques and psychological changes. Bertolucci encourages her readers to see happiness as a state of being, not one of doing or having.
She has also written extensively on methods for improved personal relations, whether it be with friends, romantic partners, or business contacts. Attitude and genuine interest will naturally attract others' attention and increase rapport. She believes there are several varied friend types that a person should have to achieve a well-rounded world view and thus richer happiness. She has said "you need different types of friends in the same way that you need food from different food groups. Different types of friends serve different purposes and nourish and enrich our lives in different ways."
