The man behind Happy Life Labs.
Brett Harmeling is the Founder & CEO of Happy Life Labs and one of only five Business Strategists worldwide working alongside Tony Robbins at Robbins Research International. His mission is simple and unwavering — to inspire people to do what inspires them, so that together, we leave an indelible mark on humanity.
The Mission
Help people master their energy — so they can master their lives.
Through Happy Life Labs, Brett teaches and collaborates with impact-driven entrepreneurs, peak performers, and growth-oriented individuals who want to optimize their energy, lead with purpose, and build a life defined by health, vitality, and meaningful contribution.
He curates the world's most effective health optimization products, people, and places — empowering clients to access what he calls their "superhuman potential" from the inside out. The work spans biotech, red light therapy, breathwork, primal remedies, and the restorative power of nature.
His belief: when people master their energy, they elevate every area of life — business, relationships, faith, and contribution to the world.

The Origin
The injury that became the curriculum.
Brett's mission was forged in a defining moment. A traumatic brain injury sustained on the ice playing hockey led to years of medication and suppression — a season of life he describes as living at a fraction of his potential.
In 2012, he made a commitment to take 100% responsibility for his health and share everything he learned with the world. That decision became the foundation of everything Happy Life Labs stands for today.
What followed was more than a decade of relentless searching — over 57 countries visited in pursuit of the world's most powerful modalities for human optimization, healing, and performance.
"In 2012 I took 100% responsibility for my health — and decided to share everything I learned."
