How to Die Happy with Martin O'Toole

How to Die Happy with Martin O'Toole

In this episode, I sit down with Martin O’Toole - a friend of mine in Bali, who is a former London ad-man turned holistic mental health coach - for a deeply honest conversation about burnout, addiction, depression, and the long road to healing.

Once a self-proclaimed “high-functioning shambles,” Martin left the hustle of city life behind and began a radical journey inward. From mindfulness and Eastern philosophy to intentional psychedelic work, Martin has cultivated what he calls The Anatomy of Happy: a grounded, compassionate path to mental wellness.

We explore how writing, humor, and storytelling can be tools for healing, and how he now helps others navigate their own suffering with honesty and heart. Whether you're sober-curious, healing trauma, or just curious about what it means to live and die well, this conversation is filled with wisdom, laughter, and soulful insight.

🎙 Tune in for a raw, real, and inspiring journey into the human condition.
