152: Meet My Mess and Navigating Trauma with Carissa Harrison

Author: Simona Costantini January 25, 2022 Duration: 32:58
Let’s face it - we all have trauma, deep-rooted stories and beliefs we have about ourselves that aren’t necessarily ours.

 

Some of us heal these things, some of us don’t, but what we can all empathize with is that sometimes, life’s stressors can take their toll on our mental wellbeing. 

 

We’re talking about mental health today, in a very raw and real way, with Carissa Harrison.

 

Carissa is a luxury art saleswoman and the host of comedy and mental health podcast... Meet my Mess! She was born in Vancouver, Canada but doesn't like to stay in one place. At 22 years old, Carissa values world travel, deep conversations, self-work and above all enjoying what life has to offer.

 

Join Carissa and I as we go into:

  • Why happiness is the sum of all things in our lives put together 
  • Bringing authenticity to hard conversations on her Meet My Mess Podcast
  • Why therapy is important and challenging the stigma around it
  • How to handle the really hard things life throws at you

We all ask those big questions about contentment and purpose at some point. Happiness Happens doesn’t treat those queries as abstract philosophy, but as a practical, weekly conversation hosted by Simona Costantini. Rather than offering a rigid formula, this podcast explores the many facets of a meaningful life through dialogues with thoughtful guests from various fields. You’ll hear from psychologists, artists, thinkers, and everyday people who have found unique pathways to fulfillment. The discussions are grounded in real experience, focusing on actionable insights that go beyond simple positive thinking. Each episode feels like a deep dive into a different corner of the human experience, whether it’s examining the role of community, the pursuit of creative passion, or the quiet practice of self-acceptance. Simona guides these conversations with a genuine curiosity, making complex ideas about well-being feel accessible and personal. The result is a resource that feels both expansive and intimately useful. Tuning into this podcast is less about searching for a single secret and more about gathering a toolkit-a collection of perspectives and practices that help you define what happiness actually means in your own life. It’s for anyone who believes that a more contented life is built from a series of conscious choices and deeper understandings, one honest conversation at a time.
