Brightening the vibe wherever I go, my name is Samantha Jung-Fielding (immediately abbreviated to Sam J-F!) and I'm the founder of Happinessence. A proficient and engaging communicator, I'm an intuitive strategist and my mentoring offers insights that are grounded in my twenty years experience as a successful entrepreneur and thought leader.

Known for my colourful and compelling style, I'm a best-selling author and sought-after speaker in the fields of intuitive happiness, conscious self-determination and the bridge between science and spirituality. My audiences range from professional organisations to groups of ambitious niche entrepreneurs. Back in 2014, Toastmasters named me among New Zealand’s top ten humorous speakers.

Since 2005, I've facilitated and developed more than 60 networking groups, working with teams in person and online. I currently host Empowered Connections in Karaka, bringing business owners together for knowledge sharing and collaborative opportunities. I use social media to profile my business and promote a range of networking and educational events that support local business owners, encourage mentorship and foster community.

At the start of my career, I spent 15 years in international sales and marketing, helping corporates break into new markets. Seeking more personal balance after my first child, I opened a natural healing centre in Walton-on-Thames. It was rewarding to see Newphoria grow into Surrey's largest hub for alternative and complementary medicine.

In 2012, my husband and I migrated our family to New Zealand, settling on an alpaca farm in the hills between Auckland and the Waikato. Nestled at the heart of our smallholding, the Happinessence clinic offers an ideal location to those seeking the peaceful energy of the countryside.
