The Happya Life
What if thriving wasn’t about having it all together but about learning to live fully, even in the messiness?
Welcome to The Happya Life Podcast, where we cut through the self-help fluff and get real about what it takes to heal, grow, and create a life that feels good from the inside out.
If you’ve ever felt stuck in survival mode exhausted by self-doubt, overwhelmed by life, or like you’re constantly putting everyone else first while barely holding yourself together this podcast is for you.
💡 What if happiness wasn’t something you had to earn but something you were always worthy of?
💡 What if you stopped waiting for the “right time” to feel good and started now?
💡 What if you finally had the tools to break free from the patterns that keep you stuck?
I’m Clare Deacon, positive psychology coach, therapist, and author of Blooming Happya. With expertise in coaching, therapy, and nervous system regulation, I take a trauma-informed, science-backed approach to self-worth, resilience, and personal growth.
This podcast is where coaching meets neuroscience meets real-life transformation because shifting your mindset is great, but if your nervous system still believes self-worth is unsafe, no amount of positive thinking will stick.
Expect deep insights, practical tools, and straight-talking wisdom to help you:
✔ Rewire self-doubt and release guilt.
✔ Heal from past experiences without getting stuck in them.
✔ Stop people-pleasing and start setting boundaries.
✔ Drop the pressure to be "perfect" and start living fully.
If you’re ready to ditch the self-help clichés and step into who you actually are, hit play. Because this? This is where your real transformation begins.
