178: How to Navigate Feeling Unworthy with Sandra Chuma

178: How to Navigate Feeling Unworthy with Sandra Chuma

Author: Simona Costantini April 25, 2023 Duration: 34:15

In this episode, we’re talking about what it means to feel worthy with my guest Sandra Chuma.

Sandra grew up in a tiny mud hut in Zimbabwe without running water or electricity at a time when the country was segregated and she remembers struggling to understand why she couldn’t play with kids who had a different skin color than her.

But she also remembers the magical times spent with her grandmothers around the kitchen fire, as they shared folktales or ‘ngano’ as they are known in her native language of Shona. Through these stories, her family instilled in her a belief that even more was possible for her than what she could see or imagine. Even though sometimes you may have to fight to be seen, to be heard, or to feel like you belong.

These beliefs have informed her life and have provided the foundation for her business, I Am Worthy.

Join us for a beautiful discussion about how you can find more faith in yourself, being impeccable with your word, and creating a life you love and truly know you are worthy of.

We get into:

  • [2:51] What happiness means to her

  • [7:11] Not being afraid of doing it “wrong”

  • [9:46] What does worthiness mean to her

  • [12:53] What does WORTHY mean in her mentorship program

  • [19:47] Her life now versus where she started from

  • [24:47] How can people find faith within themselves

  • [32:16] How can someone create a little more happiness in their day, every day, starting today

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.
