#49 | Nuthan Manohar | "Happiness rebuild"

Épisode 49

mardi 11 novembre 2025 • Durée 01:14:08

#49: Can happiness be rebuilt after everything falls apart?

In this episode, I connected with Nuthan Manohar, a happiness researcher, two-time TEDx speaker and founder of Me Met Me and The Happiness Tour.

Once a corporate strategist leading global projects across Asia Pacific, Nuthan’s world came undone through depression, anxiety and chronic insomnia. What emerged is a life devoted to helping others reconnect with joy and resilience through science-backed, sensory-rich experiences.

Deep dive talking points:

👉🏾 The anatomy of happiness: why joy is not a mood but a practice rooted in awareness and physiology;

👉🏾 Falling apart to awaken: how burnout and insomnia became Nuthan’s teachers;

👉🏾 Embodied science: the bridge between neuroscience, Ayurveda and lived experience;

👉🏾 Designing happiness: creating immersive experiences that transform well-being at work and in life;

👉🏾 Courage to be gentle: redefining strength through compassion and self-trust;

Nuggets of empowerment:

🙌🏾 True happiness is not found in intensity but in consistency;

🙌🏾 Gentleness can be the most radical form of strength;

🙌🏾 Healing begins the moment we stop performing wellness and start living it!

Nuthan’s empowering quote:

🙌🏾 “When your nervous system feels safe, happiness becomes your default state”

Books mentioned:

📚 The Happiness Advantage by Shawn Achor: exploring how positive psychology fuels performance and success;

📚 The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk: a foundational work on trauma and the wisdom of the body;

👉🏾 Nuthan’s story reminds us that happiness is not the absence of pain but the presence of safety. It asks each of us: what does your body need to finally feel at home!

#48 | Hartini Kandari | "Coming home to self"

Épisode 48

mardi 4 novembre 2025 • Durée 01:22:28

#48: What if coming home means returning to where your story began?

In this episode, I connected with Hartini Kandari, a Dutch-Indonesian therapist, author and musician whose journey moves between loss and belonging.

Born in Indonesia and adopted to the Netherlands at four months old, she lost her cultural identity overnight only to spend decades finding her way back. Today, as she prepares to remigrate to Bali, her story bridges healing, heritage and faith.

Deep dive talking points:

👉🏾 Adoption and identity: how language, smell and ancestry shape belonging beyond nationality;

👉🏾 The body remembers: early loss expressed through tension, skin and voice before words could catch up;

👉🏾 The therapy of music: violin as her first language of connection and resilience;

👉🏾 Writing through wounds: creating her book 𝗔𝗱𝗼𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗲 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁 to help adoptees reflect, heal and feel seen;

👉🏾 Faith and homecoming: rediscovering God, roots and rest after decades of inner restlessness!

Nuggets of empowerment:

🙌🏾 Healing isn’t about fixing what’s broken it’s about remembering what’s whole;

🙌🏾 Sometimes our restlessness is a compass pointing us back to where our story began;

🙌🏾 Real connection starts when we stop performing and begin allowing ourselves to feel!

Hartini’s empowering quote:

🙌🏾 “With ACT therapy we don’t aim to heal what’s broken because we are not broken we learn psychological flexibility”

Books mentioned:

📚 Adoptie Impact: invites adoptees to pause, embrace both gratitude and grief, and gently reclaim their place by giving every feeling the space to exist!

📚 The Primal Wound by Nancy Verrier: a foundational work on the separation trauma experienced by adoptees.
