In this solstice episode of The Self-Made Happyaire, I explore a different relationship with happiness. One that doesn’t require chasing, striving, or forcing cheer. Instead, we look to nature, the turning of the light, and the wisdom of horses to understand how happiness actually returns.

Light doesn’t come back with fireworks. It returns slowly. Safely. Moment by moment.

Through the story of Able, a horse who embodies peace so fully that others soften in his presence, we explore what it means to become a safe place for happiness to land. A home where joy doesn’t have to perform, prove itself, or arrive on a schedule.

If you’re feeling disconnected from the season, tired of trying to feel a certain way, or longing for a quieter kind of joy, this episode is for you.

You don’t need to chase happiness.

You only need to make it welcome.

Joy doesn’t disappear.

It waits.

In this episode of The Self-Made Happyaire, I explore why joy can feel lost even when nothing is technically “wrong” — and how your nervous system plays a much bigger role than you may realize.

Using a simple but powerful metaphor — an inner control cabin with dials that regulate everything from stress to peace to joy — we talk about nervous system static, emotional interference, and the science of allostasis and allostatic load. When your body has been adapting to stress for too long, joy doesn’t vanish… it just gets harder to hear.

Let's weave together neuroscience, hypnosis training, lived experience, and lessons straight from the pasture. Horses show us how to rise, release, and return to baseline — something humans often forget how to do.

This episode is an invitation to stop chasing happiness and start tuning into it.

To remember that you hold the keys to your control cabin.

And to reclaim sovereignty over the frequency you’re living in right now.

Joy doesn’t need to be full-time.

Peace and quiet are valid settings too.

The power is knowing you can adjust the dial.

In this episode, I invite you to walk out into the pasture with me and remember something horses know instinctively: energy echoes. I share a story about my heart horse, Rainbow, and the day a braying mule sent his nervous system into a full-on shatter. What happened next became one of the most important lessons of my life — a lesson about anxiety, tranquility, and the frequencies we choose to tune into.

I’m Kimberly Beer — seeker of happiness, entrepreneur, Gestaltist, hypnotist, and farm-dwelling neurodivergent human who has walked with depression and still chooses joy on purpose.

In this first episode, I’m inviting you into the heart of what this podcast is all about:

Happiness as a frequency.

Not a mood. Not a moment. Something we broadcast. Something we tune into. Something we can learn to cultivate with intention.

In today’s episode, I share:

✨ My journey as a lifelong seeker of happiness

✨ How depression, entrepreneurship, and nature shaped my understanding of joy

✨ Why happiness isn’t one-size-fits-all

✨ The idea that happiness has its own resonance — and it’s contagious

✨ What this podcast will offer you each week

✨ How nature, animals, and the wilderness guide my work

✨ One powerful question to begin your journey

This show isn’t fluffy. It will challenge you gently, spark insight, and invite you into deeper awareness. My goal is to help you become wealthy in your happiness — a true Self-Made Happyaire.

Let me tell you a secret nobody bothered to teach me and you may not know:

Happiness is not a mood. It’s not illusive. It isn’t tied down to money or possessions or even other people. It’s a frequency — and you can tune it like a magical radio.

I’m Kimberly Beer, and this is The Self-Made Happyaire — the podcast that teaches you how to transmute stress, embrace your joy, and dial into the wealth of unadulterated happiness.

Each week, I spend ten minutes helping you:

• get out of survival mode

• stay present without fear

• turn stress into capacity

• stop outsourcing your joy

• and build your happiness from the inside out

(without spiritual clichés or toxic positivity).

Sprinkled into the month there is a longer, deeper conversation with someone who knows their lane — somatics, creativity, resilience, nature, horses, neuropsych and more.

If you’re ready to tune back into yourself,

You’ve found your frequency.

This is The Self-Made Happyaire.
