But Are You Happy‪?‬ Mamamia

How would you feel if you failed at the one thing you’ve worked tirelessly towards for so long? Imagine being an Olympian, feeling the weight of an entire nation's expectations to win gold. That's the reality for Ariarne Titmus right now.
Ariarne Titmus, a record-holding swimmer, is just days away from competing in the 2024 Paris Olympics. And, although we all see her as a high-performing athlete, that’s not always how she sees herself. 
In this conversation, Ariarne shares how success changes relationships, why she doesn’t need a mindset coach, and how she’d trade every medal she’s ever won for a different kind of happiness.

Picture this: you're standing on stage, about to perform in front of thousands of people, feeling your absolute lowest then... the stage lights come up. It’s the nightmare we’ve all had, but Rob Mills has actually lived it.
Rob is a singer, actor, writer, and — Australia’s boyfriend. He’s a big advocate for mental health, having had moments in life where he’s suffered in silence.
In this chat, one of the most vulnerable we’ve had on this podcast, Rob opens up about his once all-consuming relationship with alcohol, the mental health crisis facing men, the magic of falling in love, and how getting “the thing” isn’t always a recipe for happiness.

Imagine stepping into the spotlight on a TV show, finding love, and then facing nationwide scrutiny—not for anything you did, but simply for how you look. Laura Byrne knows this all too well, and it's taken her years to reclaim her self-love.
Laura is a podcaster, an author, and a business owner, who entered Australian homes when she won The Bachelor in 2017, ending up with her now-husband, Matty J. 
In this candid chat, Laura opens up about the relationship challenges and mum guilt that comes with being a working mother, the harsh impact of online criticism, and what she won't share on a podcast.

Talking about mental health can be tough, and many of us just laugh it off. Khanh Ong often does this to make others comfortable, but this conversation is different.
Khanh is a chef, author, and media personality who has been able to taste so much success since bursting onto our screens on Master Chef. However it was his time in the "I’m A Celebrity" jungle that helped him realise the one thing stopping him from happiness. 
In this chat, he opens up about that one thing, how success doesn’t change your perception of yourself and how your childhood shapes who you become as an adult.
