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.

Thriving in Relationships: How to Maintain Healthy Connections
Ever feel like relationships are meant to feel safe, but somehow they always feel exhausting? You’re not alone... and you’re not broken.
In this soulful episode of The Happya Life Podcast, Clare Deacon unpacks why relationships often leave us feeling drained, even when we deeply care, and how to shift from surviving connection to thriving within it.
Drawing from trauma-informed psychology, attachment theory, and nervous system wisdom, Clare explores:
✨ Why many of us are wired to overgive and under-receive
✨ The connection between childhood roles and adult relationship patterns
✨ What co-regulation is and why your nervous system longs for it
✨ How to build healthy, reciprocal relationships without betraying yourself
✨ Scripts and strategies for navigating discomfort, honesty, and repair
This isn’t about fixing people. It’s about honouring your needs, creating safe containers for connection, and learning to trust that you don’t have to shrink to be loved.
Whether you're navigating family dynamics, friendships, or romantic relationships, this episode will help you stop managing and start relating, from a place of clarity, safety, and self-trust.
🔁 You don’t have to earn love by disappearing into someone else’s needs.
