Joymaker • a group leader loved for igniting smiles, laughs, hugs and real human connection.
Ignite Joy
AUDIO GUIDED
Power Ups 🚀
I've created resources to help you create an uplifting group culture. Each Joymaker Power Up is the outcome of 1,000s of hours of igniting groups across 10+ countries, on stages, streets, and trains.
I've poured my heart into them. I've also included an Audio Guide for each Power Up, ensuring you get the most value.

Action Calls 📈
In my Action Calls, I help Joymakers on a one-on-one basis create defined action plans. My goal is to make you independent, so you don't rely on my coaching.
We'll open a shared Google document, write down goals, create checklists, identify your barriers, and make an action plan together in less than an hour.

About Me
I’m Jacques W. Martiquet and I don’t know everything, but I sure do know how to lead rave-worthy experiences.
I go by two names. As The Party Scientist, I lead sober raves and opening keynotes. As Joymaker Prof, I teach the science behind igniting joy and belonging in any social setting.
I quit my career in pharmacology to light up crowds as a public speaker and to train Joymakers around the world. My mission? Help people rebel against the quick-dopamine culture that leaves us sick, addicted, and isolated.
I do this by empowering leaders like you to become Joymakers—the bold leaders loved for igniting smiles, laughs, hugs, and real human connection.
