Welcome to The Happy Achiever Podcast, a space for driven, big-hearted achievers who are ready to reach their biggest goals without losing themselves in the process.

If you want to achieve big goals and you’re willing to put in the work to make them happen, but the process is leaving you feeling more stress, anxiety, fear, or self-doubt than you’d like, then you’re in the right place.

I’m Amal Grammas, a leadership coach who has spent the last seven years helping over 600 leaders and achievers identify and overcome the obstacles that keep them from feeling fulfilled and reaching their true potential. I’m passionate about this work because I speak from experience. After years of chasing goals and battling my own anxiety, I learned that the path to lasting success starts from within.

In this podcast, we’ll use proven tools, science, and mindset shifts to explore how to heal, grow, and thrive—so you can gain the clarity and confidence you need to achieve extraordinary goals.

Expect honest conversations, real stories, and vulnerable moments—from me, my clients, and special guests—all aimed at helping you break old patterns, find peace in your heart, and feel a deep sense of purpose as you achieve more than you ever thought possible.

New episodes drop Mondays and Thursdays.
