Hi, Mary “Uncustomary” England!

Hi, I'm A Mary! A Merriment Maker!

I’m a published author, life coach, event speaker, podcaster, and team building facilitator. I have two degrees in Psychology and have a background in social work.

I’ve run my own business since 2013, where I created my own job title: Merriment Maker.

My goal is to help overwhelmed humans make happiness and fun a habit in their lives.

I actively study psychology, positivity, and fun. 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. Plus…

I Wasn't Always Happy...

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.

Why This Is Cool...

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.
