SHIT HAPPY with Toni Powell
Shit Happy™️ – a feel-good podcast AND a new word: a noun meaning ‘stirring shitshows into something good’.
Hosted by Toni Powell (ABC’s Australian Story, 15M+ Goalcast views), Shit Happy™️ is where resilience meets real talk.
Each week, Toni’s guests share deeply human, uplifting — and often hilarious — stories of how they’ve navigated life’s messiest moments.
They offer hard-won wisdom on mental health, mindset, burnout, relationships, anxiety, and bouncing back when life blindsides you.
Toni is a recovering misery addict turned happiness hacker whose storytelling and science-backed tools have helped millions shift their mindset and find joy, even in disaster.
You’ll get three episodes a week, including IN BED WITH PHIL — a cozy, unscripted episode from bed (yes, really), full of dad jokes, cheeky banter, and sometimes unexpected brilliance.
If you want a wellbeing podcast that’s down-to-earth, soul-stirring and full of real-life resilience, this is it.
Think: TED talk meets Ted Lasso… with a dash of The Princess Bride.
There’s science. There’s laughter.
There’s stories that actually help.
There’s heart.
SHIT HAPPY™ — all the good feels.
