  • Series Special Happya Ever After: Living Forward After Loss
    May 1 2026

    🪷If something in this spoke to you, I’d love to hear, message me.

    What does “ever after” really mean after the death of a partner?

    In this final episode of Happya Ever After, Clare Deacon reflects on what it means to live forward after loss not with fairytale endings or forced positivity, but with honesty, compassion, and choice.

    This episode brings together the heart of the series: how to carry love without being trapped in pain, how to honour what has been lost without freezing your life at the moment of loss, and how to give yourself permission to choose a life that works now.

    This conversation is for you if you’re navigating life after loss and wondering how to move forward without letting go of love, memory, or meaning.

    In this episode, Clare explores:

    • What “ever after” really means after grief
    • How to carry love forward without staying trapped in suffering
    • Why pain is not proof of love
    • How to live in a way that honours both grief and life
    • Permission to choose a life that fits who you are now

    This is not about closure or happy endings.
    It’s about living forward with integrity, adaptability, and self-trust.

    You are allowed to live.
    You are allowed to choose what works now.

  • Series Special Happya Ever After: Finding Meaning After the Death of a Partner
    Apr 24 2026

    🪷If something in this spoke to you, I’d love to hear, message me.

    After the death of a partner, life can lose its sense of direction.

    In this episode of Happya Ever After, Clare Deacon explores what it means to find meaning after loss without confusing meaning with happiness, positivity, or moving on.

    This episode is for those who feel disoriented, unsure of their purpose, or quietly wondering how to build a life that still feels true after such a profound change.

    Clare gently explores:

    • The difference between meaning and happiness after loss
    • Why meaning is not about finding a reason for what happened
    • How purpose can emerge quietly after grief
    • What it means to create a life that fits who you are now
    • Why meaning after loss evolves over time and cannot be forced

    This is not an episode about erasing grief or replacing what was lost.
    It’s about allowing life to re-orient in a way that honours both love and loss.

    You don’t need to feel happy to live a meaningful life.
    And you don’t need to have it all figured out.

  • Series Special Happya Ever After: Post-Traumatic Growth After Grief
    Apr 17 2026

    🪷If something in this spoke to you, I’d love to hear, message me.

    Post-traumatic growth is often misunderstood especially after grief.

    In this episode of Happya Ever After, Clare Deacon explores what post-traumatic growth actually means after loss, and what it very much does not. This is not about silver linings, forced meaning, or turning pain into something positive.

    Instead, this episode offers a grounded, honest look at how growth can happen alongside grief not beyond it.

    This episode is for you if the idea of growth after loss has ever felt uncomfortable, invalidating, or like pressure to be okay. It’s also for you if you’ve noticed subtle changes in yourself and wondered what they mean.

    Clare explores:

    • What post-traumatic growth really means in the context of grief
    • Why growth does not justify or redeem loss
    • The difference between growing around grief and trying to move beyond it
    • Why growth is not a requirement or a goal
    • How this concept differs from toxic positivity

    This episode is not about finding meaning in loss.
    It’s about understanding how people sometimes change while continuing to live with grief.

    You don’t need to grow for your grief to be valid.
    And you don’t need to make sense of this today.
