188: Coming Home to Ourselves: Uncovering Happiness and Inner Peace with Sonia Jhas

188: Coming Home to Ourselves: Uncovering Happiness and Inner Peace with Sonia Jhas

Author: Simona Costantini July 11, 2023 Duration: 50:50

Constantly searching for validation and happiness outside of ourselves can be an exhausting and often disappointing journey which is why we must learn how to come home to ourselves.

Finding neutrality in our journeys without so much pressure on the outcome or the ideas of the outside world is a practice that Sonia Jhas has been working on for years.

Sonia gave up her skyrocketing corporate career and through her journey of deep analysis, education, determination, and willpower she uncovered a deep passion for wellness, as well as a driving desire to help others. 

She made it her mission to help people live their best lives through online talks, speaking engagements, television appearances, and coaching. 

The TEDx speaker and award-winning mindset and wellness expert’s enthusiasm, sense of humor, and openness about her own journey have earned her a reputation as an unstoppable force in the wellness arena. She is the author of the book, I’ll Start Again Tomorrow (And Other Lies I’ve Told Myself).

I’m so excited for you to hear this vulnerable conversation with Sonia.

 

We’re going to dig into:

  • [4:50] What does happiness mean to Sonia

  • [8:34] Finding neutrality to find your own inner peace and happiness

  • [11:48] How to get out of your own head

  • [17:25] Who would you be if no one was watching?

  • [18:45] Diving into the story of how she wrote her book

  • [29:13] How do you keep growing and evolving without having to start from scratch each time?

  • [36:35] The problem of burning ourselves out while chasing after the myth of getting “there” and THEN things calming down

  • [38:55] The drive of fear and our idea of safety

  • [46:00] How can someone create a little more happiness each 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.
