My Happy Place: Creating Community Wellness and Economic Growth in Fairfield

In the heart of Fairfield, My Happy Place stands out as a vibrant hub for community health and connection, founded by entrepreneur Mireya Karina Rojas. A long-time resident of Fairfield and mother of three, Mireya’s inspiring journey from humble beginnings to successful business ownership showcases the power of resilience, community, and dedication to health and wellness.

From Personal Transformation to Community Impact

Mireya’s path to establishing My Happy Place began in 2013 when she discovered Herbalife products to address her own digestive health issues. Experiencing dramatic improvements and weight loss, she felt inspired to help others improve their health. “What started as a journey to feel better evolved into a passion for helping others transform their lives,” Mireya explains. She initially shared her wellness products from home, later expanding to a storefront in Fairfield to serve even more people.

The name "My Happy Place" reflects Mireya’s mission to create a space where clients feel supported, motivated, and valued. For her, building relationships and offering a positive atmosphere go hand-in-hand with promoting healthier lifestyles.


A Place for Nutritious Living

At My Happy Place, clients enjoy healthy options like açaí bowls, power bowls, and protein-rich drinks. Each item is carefully crafted with nutritional value in mind, offering low-sugar, high-protein alternatives for those pursuing wellness. “Our goal is to make healthy living accessible and enjoyable for everyone,” Mireya shares.


Empowering the Local Community

Mireya’s business is not just about nutrition; it’s about uplifting the local community. My Happy Place regularly hosts pop-up events that give local vendors a platform to showcase their businesses, fostering economic collaboration and growth. Each month, they organize 21-day challenges that focus on health goals, from weight loss to muscle gain. These challenges include nutrition guides, exercise routines accessible through an app, and group chats for encouragement and accountability.

To strengthen community bonds, Mireya hosts Customer Appreciation Parties quarterly, celebrating milestones and achievements. “Recognizing the progress of our clients is at the core of what we do,” she explains. The upcoming Thanksgiving potluck will bring people together to share a meal and connect, while the second-anniversary celebration in January will feature giveaways, including gift cards, and introduce new products like Energy Shots.


Building a Foundation for Growth

The success of My Happy Place is built on overcoming challenges with resilience and determination. “Attracting and retaining clients has been one of the biggest hurdles,” Mireya admits. Leveraging digital platforms, including Google, has brought new customers searching for healthy food options. As a business owner, she has also emphasized the importance of strong community ties, providing one-on-one support and engagement beyond business transactions.

Looking forward, Mireya’s goal is to expand by opening additional locations. She is focusing on creating systems and processes that ensure consistent quality, making the business model easily scalable. She also seeks to collaborate with partners and employees who share her passion for health and community impact.


Supporting Local Businesses and Inspiring Entrepreneurs

As an active member of the Solano Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, Mireya emphasizes the power of community support and collaboration. “Building a business is not just about profits; it’s about making a positive impact and uplifting those around you,” she states. Mireya encourages aspiring entrepreneurs to take risks, seek guidance, and believe in their ability to succeed.

The Chamber community can follow My Happy Place on Facebook and Instagram to stay updated on events, offerings, and wellness tips. For Mireya, My Happy Place is more than just a business—it’s a mission to transform lives and strengthen the local community, one healthy choice at a time.
