You might think Hollywood celebrities are happier than the rest of us, but are they really? Josh Thomas doesn’t think so.

Josh is a wildly funny and successful comedian, known for creating one of Australia’s best comedy dramas Please Like Me, which he wrote based on his own life.

In this chat, he talks about success, creativity, being diagnosed with autism and ADHD as an adult, and what living in Hollywood has taught him about happiness.

This episode of 'No Filter,' hosted by Mia Freedman will help you have better relationships - and understand the bad ones you’ve had in the past - or might still be having.

Because the origin of every relationship we have is our attachment style, and knowing what yours is and how that affects how you interact with people and the romantic partners you choose can be a game-changer.

Mia talks to clinical psychologist and attachment theory expert, Dr. Morgan Anderson, about all things attachment styles and so much more, like: what exactly is the “ick”, what is breadcrumbing, and why we tend to be attracted to people who may not be so good for us.

You can hear part two of Mia's conversation here.

What are the pivotal experiences in your life that have shaped who you are today?

Australian actress Tammin Sursok has plenty of experiences to share, and she’s grateful for each one, no matter how challenging.

In this season finale of But Are You Happy?, Clare invites Tammin to share her story candidly. At first glance, you might not see the struggles she’s faced, but beneath the surface, she has battled feelings of shame and moments that shattered her self-esteem. She’s lived through serious health challenges, and now she’s navigating who she is today, with her family at the forefront.

So, is Tammin Sursok happy? You guessed it—you’ll have to listen to find out.

What Tammin Sursok Knows About Taking Up Space

We've all faced those biting comments about our looks or how we act, and we often let those words affect us, even though they shouldn’t.

Lucinda Price, AKA Froomes, grew up convinced that to fit in with the 'right' crowd, she had to be hot. Back then, certain traits were seen as the ultimate beauty standard, leading her to believe she had to change parts of herself to be accepted.

In this episode, Froomes—who’s an author, comedian, broadcaster, and internet personality—sits down with Clare to chat about the unrealistic beauty standards we’ve all faced and how they’ve affected her and so many other women. This episode isn’t just about happiness, it’s also about self-acceptance and navigating the challenges that come with it.

So, after working to overcome so much and be comfortable in her own skin, is Froomes happy? Let’s find out.
