Ep 35: Creating a Joy Menu: Small, Intentional Ways to Bring More Happiness into Your Life

Let’s talk about joy..

In this episode, we’re diving into how to stop outsourcing happiness to some future version of yourself and start intentionally building joy into your life, right here in the messy middle. You’ll learn how to create your very own “Joy Menu” - a personalised toolkit of small, specific things that light you up and bring you back to life.

We’ll explore:

• What happiness actually means for you
• How to practice deeper gratitude
• The power of presence and the art of truly noticing joy in the everyday
• A 3-part framework to create your own Joy Menu
• Why happiness is a choice

This is your permission slip to stop waiting and start feeling more alive—on purpose.

Grab a notebook, take a deep breath, and let’s build some joy together. You deserve it.

Episode 34: Honest Mid-Year Reflections

This one’s a little different. No tools, no steps, no how-to’s—just me, your host Temma, catching you up on the quiet, powerful shifts I’ve been moving through this year.

It’s been a big one… but not in a loud, dramatic, “everything’s changed overnight” kinda way. More like slow, deep-under-the-surface type growth. The kind that no one else might see, but you feel it.

In this episode, I’m reflecting on what’s been landing for me lately:

• Noticing joy again in the tiny, everyday moments
• Letting emotions roll through without fixing them
• Learning to trust myself
• Owning my sensitivity as a superpower

This is your reminder that even if the outside looks the same, you’ve probably grown more than you realise.

You’re Not Healing If You’re Not Living - What if all the self-development work isn’t landing because you’re not actually living your life?

I’m fresh out of a 6-month somatic and embodiment program (yay) and it honestly cracked me wide open. Not in a dramatic way.. but in the “holy crap, I’ve been missing the point” kind of way.

This one’s for the girl who’s tired of trying to heal her entire life in one journaling session. For the woman who’s read all the books, done all the shadow work, and still feels stuck.

In this episode, we chat about:

• Why rest isn’t a reward
• How society wires us to go-go-go—and why women aren’t built that way
• Real-life ways to drop out of your head and back into your body
• What actually creates growth (spoiler: it’s not the 12-step healing plan)
• How to stop performing healing and start living with presence again

It’s real talk, soft encouragement, and a whole lotta reminders that you don’t need to earn your joy or your rest.

Let this episode be your permission slip to chill out, soften, and just be human for a minute... because that's entirely the point
