In this live-streamed episode of the Association Chat Podcast, host KiKi L’Italien sits down with Jacques W. Martiquet, International Anti-Keynote Speaker and Event Experience Consultant of The Party Scientist, to talk about Applying the Science of Joy to our leadership skills and community building.
About Jacques:
Jacques, aka The Party Scientist, is on Earth to help people create their own joy through their body, mindset, and human connections. His core belief? Joy multiplied by connection is the greatest natural antidepressant—and he’ll get you feelin’ it! At his high-energy experiences, Jacques shares tools to create fun anywhere, leaving you connected and naturally uplifted.
In 2015, while working as a festival medic saving intoxicated youth, Jacques discovered his life’s purpose. This sparked a sober partying movement that caught the eye of VICE, Elle, Macleans, and Global News.
Though he holds a Bachelor of Pharmacology degree, he skipped the traditional path. Instead, he teaches people how to tap into their body’s natural “feel-good” chemicals through connection, music, and healthy living.
Since 2017, Jacques has led thousands of joyful events across 15+ countries, rocking international festival stages and corporate offices like Accenture and LUSH Cosmetics. Today, he continues to host sober parties and happiness workshops in his hometown of Vancouver, Canada, spreading his message of natural, connection-driven joy.
