Power To Be Happy: Journey of Healing, Together

Joe Bakhmoutski

When you have a difficult story in life, it is so hard to bring it out into the open and “deal with it”… Sometimes you don’t even realise just how much it’s been affecting you in your day to day – or so has it been for me. And so I am trying to make sense of it all, and in this podcast, I want to share some of the vital things that I’m learning on this journey towards healing and hope. You are not alone, my friend! I’m here for you, and you – you deserve to be happy, and let’s figure things out

#161 – Glimmers Not Triggers

Power To Be Happy: Journey of Healing, Together ·

2024/12/20

Isn’t it weird how life’s full of moments that either bring up the feelings of joy, love, excitement, or sometimes they make you feel dismal, alone, or upset. The trouble today is so often we talk about triggers, those moments that pull you away from the moment and noticing beauty of life.We try our hardest to keep away from the hard stuff, but that, in a way, is distraction. It’s running away from the hard things which we know we can’t - we’re going to have to face them, in fact, I believe it’s a

The easiest thing I’ve done is quit smoking, and here’s why - I found out my own personal reason. You want to know how?This works when you want to make a change in your life, and changing is hard. Like smoking - I knew it was bad, and I knew it for years, but somehow, I always made up the tales that helped me keep going. I told myself comfortable lies - it helps me relax (the opposite of course is true), we all need a vice (we don’t), it’s forcing me taking a break (I wasn’t working that hard in

#159 – How To Set Meaningful Goals and Bring Them To...

Power To Be Happy: Journey of Healing, Together ·

2024/08/17

I honestly cannot remember the last time that someone I spoke has shared their goals for the future…The closest we usually come with - I should get a new job, I’ll try and finish that PhD, or I need a break. It doesn’t come off as compelling, committed, and ready to go, and not because these goals are not worthy, or we are not worthy of goals, no: It’s that we don’t give ourselves TIME to immerse ourselves in our dreams, hopes, and desires! Those things truly matter - the everyday moments we

Do you ever your hand up for something, get super excited, and when it doesn’t go perfect, you kind of crash down and burn?I am a bit of an expert - this year, I signed to be the team manager for our son’s soccer team. It’s kids we know, they’re having so much fun, I mean, what could possibly go wrong? But then the coach was away, and so I found myself struggling in doing too many things - with training, planning, and game days, but what upset the most is people took it for granted. Just because

I was doing my groceries and struck up a chat at the counter, and this person related their vision for when they’re retired:They’ll there’ll be quiet and harmony then… And you’ve heard this before, it is waiting for a time when things sort themselves out, maybe then I can be happy… It is hard to rely on a future we cannot predict, but still - even if it were true though, what about right now, in this moment, today? I believe that the happiness m calls on us, even most in the harshest conditions

When you listen to your friends’ success, or a moment of glory, do you find yourself jealous, if only a bit?I had recently talking to friend with a podcast – he was telling me about this great spike of growth, and I couldn’t help myself feeling not only jealous: Feeling out of my depth. I don’t even belong here! Why I’m getting things wrong… All these questions, and doubts, they start circling, until you start giving them space – to be here, to be present, make us question, check in with

2024/07/02

It’s weird so please help me describe it - but I’m going to give it a try:It’s this nagging sense that something is missing, undone, that hangs in the background. You may go through your day, and you’re getting through things, and you might be feeling okay on the whole… And yet, there’s a longing, this emptiness somewhere within that is yearning for closure, this vague sense we always resist. Because if you answer, and look at it closely, it hides an old pain, and it might get worse, or even

What makes you unique is the people you trust.Because when you feel safe, understood, and accepted, that is when you’ve the freedom to dream, and explore, try things out. You are being truly seen, just the way you’re supposed to. But so often we have our uniqueness lie buried in doubt, and forgotten – but it’s never been gone! It is waiting to be rediscovered. And you found your uniqueness with others – with the people you trust, you believe in, and it’s not always easy to find them. You

The most memorable part of the journey is right where you begin - it is new, it is fresh, and you soak it all in, like a sponge. That's the way it has been with my journey to heal - when I came across Left Write Hook, a unique recovery program for survivors of child sexual abuse that brings together creative writing and boxing. It's the rush of emotion that is hitting me right in the face: there are people like me. There are people who face it, there are people who HEAL. Meeting Donna, the

#151 – The Radical Experience of Being Truly Seen

2024/06/10

We want to be seen, heard, acknowledged - for who we truly *are* - deep, on the inside... But feeling that you’re being seen does not come about on its own - we have to SHIFT the way we communicate. And why that is - so people know exactly what you stand for, so people know what you want, so people know: You really care about THEM. How do you do that - with kindness, compassion, and not feeling hurt? For me, I boiled it down to doing five simple things that helps me really CONNECT - instead of

It’s important we celebrate moments of good times and fun and fulfillment because life isn’t always like that. There are times when you’re feeling frustrated, things that don’t go your way, and you’re trying your best, and they don’t always see it… The most frustrating thing is you reach for the things you can’t influence, change – it feels wrong, and it

It is always so sudden, a shock – and yet, we move on from it, don’t we? You might tell yourself off, get upset, but then, you keep going. But sometimes our very own thought might trigger a much more violent reaction inside of ourselves.

Once upon a time, in a land much like our own, there was a little girl who lived in the streets.And it was a good life – the only one that she knew, anyway. She learned to fish in the small shallow river that ran through the town, and digging out tubers she found in the parks. She chased about men in their tall fancy hats, asking for change – and some gave her mercy. You do what you do to get by. This one time, she followed a man, who kept himself hiding. It was the end of the alley, and

We know all about markers for physical health - body mass index, heart rate, glucose levels, but what about mental health? In a culture where mental health is now part of the conversation, we know very little about what we can actually measure on personal level in just such a way that you know that you’re winning. As I look back at my personal history of grappling with mental health, it’s very clear: The most impactful change has been befriending my body. For thirty six years, we lived as if
