12-WEEK MASTERCLASS PROGRAM

This 12-week MasterClass is a practical guide to creating a happier, more balanced life - one week at a time. Based on Todd's personal recovery journey and years of helping others, the course focuses on simple, proven habits that address the real causes of stress, anxiety, and negative thinking.

Each week introduces one focused practice - such as exercise, managing your thoughts, being kinder to yourself, reducing stress, improving relationships, and cultivating gratitude. These lessons are designed to build on one another, creating steady progress without overwhelm or quick-fix promises.

Through short video lessons, real-life examples, and practical exercises from the workbook, you'll learn how to change the way you think, feel, and respond to everyday challenges. The goal isn't perfection - it's consistency, self-awareness, and learning how to make your own happiness a priority in a realistic, sustainable way.

This course is for anyone who feels stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected - and is ready to make meaningful change, one small step at a time.

Transforming Lives Through Authentic Stories

ABOUT TODD PATKIN

Transforming Lives Through Authentic Stories
Todd Patkin

Since the sale of the family business to Advance Auto Parts in 2005, Todd has devoted himself to his true passions: philanthropy, giving back, spending time with family and friends, and helping people discover genuine happiness.

Personal Journey

Todd Patkin knows firsthand that having a 'perfect' life doesn't guarantee happiness—in fact, his perfect exterior once hid a devastating struggle with depression and anxiety.

18 Years of Growth

After graduating from Tufts University, Todd joined the family business and spent 18 years helping grow it to new heights. Despite achieving extraordinary business success, Todd was privately battling perfectionism, low self-esteem, chronic stress, and hidden depression. At age 36, everything came crashing down in a complete breakdown.

That breakdown became his breakthrough.

The Culture Blueprint

Todd transformed his insights into a comprehensive system that's helped thousands build sustainable happiness. His vulnerability in sharing his story—including the painful and embarrassing moments—has opened doors for others to acknowledge their own struggles and seek the help they deserve.
