About the Author

Past subject of an episode of ABC's Australian Story, Toni Powell has been on a quest to find simple ways to bring joy and contentment into her life. Her search has found her picking the brains of ridiculously happy people and mind-boffins from around the world. Being a storyteller at heart Toni takes all she learns and turns it into entertaining talks and classes that she shares at conferences, in schools, at work places and online. She's made two award-winning short films and is currently working on Goodness Gracious Me! a documentary about the science behind gratitude and contentment. The Yellow Car is her first book.
