In this special Mental Health Awareness Week episode of The Happier Life Project, host Gabby Sanderson is joined by Chlo Hodgkinson for an honest and relatable conversation about mental health, burnout, motherhood, and the small actions that can create meaningful change in our wellbeing.
With this year’s theme focused on Action, Gabby and Chlo explore the gap between understanding what supports our mental health and actually implementing those changes in everyday life. From balancing self-employment and motherhood to navigating burnout and setting healthier boundaries, the conversation highlights how easy it is to slip into survival mode - and how important it is to listen when the mind and body begin asking for something different.
Chlo opens up about her own journey after becoming a mother, including being diagnosed with an underactive thyroid, struggling with burnout, and learning to prioritise her wellbeing in a more intentional and realistic way. Together, Gabby and Chlo discuss self-care beyond the buzzwords, the importance of inner work and personal growth, and why progress isn’t always outwardly visible.
The episode also features a playful quick-fire round inspired by Mental Health Awareness Week, encouraging listeners to pause, reflect, and consider the small everyday habits that help support emotional wellbeing.
Chlo Hodgkinson is a self-employed professional, fitness and health entrepreneur, mother, and key member of the My Possible Self team.
This episode invites listeners to reflect on one simple but important question: what action have you taken recently to support your mental health?
