Fears + Pleasures Workshop
Turning painful fear blocks into new happy habits
Every month, I host a webinar inside of the Merriment Makers Membership Group based on that month's theme.
This Month's Theme Is Fears + Pleasures!
We are talking about how to identify the fears, comfort zones, and Secondary Gains we get from keeping ourselves small and block us from a PLEASURE, MAGIC-FILLED life!

- What if instead of hitting snooze every day and dreading the things you've come to decide are your fate, struggle, or life sentence, you created a life so beautiful you were EXCITED to get out of bed and live your life?
- What is instead of punishing yourself for feeling fear, you used fear as a TOOL to your advantage that informed your behavior and thoughts, which expanded your entire existence?
- What if instead of feeling pressured by society to stay small, maintain the status quo, conform, consume, capitalize, and anything else that doesn't feel right in your bones, you were COMFORTABLE and CONTENT with joy and success instead of failure and misery?
TESTIMONIAL
"I have begun looking at my habits that I would like to change. Your questions were very insightful. We are so hard on ourselves. Society is very loud in telling us that we should be and do more in every kind of way. The things we say to ourselves, we would never say to another human being.
Your thoughtful dialogue about Fear, Trauma, Addictions and Habits was empowering. The ways that bad habits are formed is the result of our bodies, mind and soul being 100% dedicated to our safety and preservation at any cost. Coping methods that worked in the past and initially may have been our best option for escape from that situation, may not work anymore. Continuing those choices can have consequences that often creates more conflict. Understanding why we dive into coping strategies that no longer work for us guides us to make educated decisions on how we can move forward. Shame and guilt dig us further into the pain. Love and compassion is the key to freedom to live our best life.
For myself personally, ... I see that my choice ... was useful and necessary to gain my own identity, safety for our family and peace of mind in that particular moment in time. I recognize why I chose to react the way I did. I know that I did the best that I could. Through your Merriment Making exercises, I have gained more peace with the past which was one of my 2021 goals." - Melissa

Hi! My name is Mary Uncustomary England.
I’m a published author, life coach, event speaker, podcaster, and team building facilitator. I have two degrees in Psychology. Previously, I worked at a psychiatric rehabilitation center for five years, creating curriculums for courses for 100 adults with mental illness. I’ve run my own business since 2013, where I created my own job title: Merriment Maker.
I actively study psychology, positivity, and fun. I’ve coached people 1:1 for over almost a decade with glowing reviews. I don’t base my work on hunches or tote bag inspiration. It’s influenced by research, science, and action. Let’s just say I have my 10,000 hours.
I have one dozen mental illnesses of my own. I come here from a sincere desire of wanting to be happy, not naturally being happy. I know this is work. And I’m doing it with you. I know if I can have an eating disorder, self-harm every day for years, try to kill myself, abuse drugs, and experience sexual assault and still create a fun life, I can help you have a fun life, too.
I believe in play over meditation. I’m blunt. My methods are founded in psychology and science, and I’m also (realistically) optimistic. I’m a good teacher. I’ve taught adults how to read and how to love themselves. Perhaps most importantly, I am here to get you to take action, not just to theoretically understand something.
My Merriment Making Method will always provide you with actionable steps and ideas to get you out of your head and into the world.
Tangibility will always win over theory.
