From Bullied Teen to TV Host: How Saying “Yes” Can Change Everything with Vaibhav "Happy" Nahata
In this episode of Dancing in the Discomfort Zone, I sit down with the one and only Vaibhav Nahata, a.k.a. “Happy” (www.speakervideos.com)—a joy-fueled video marketing pro, teen speaker, and TV show producer from Nepal who has turned discomfort into his superpower.
Once the bullied kid at school, now a bold entrepreneur interviewing CEOs and inspiring youth around the world, Happy’s story is a wild ride of risk, resilience, and saying “yes” even when you have no clue what you’re doing. (Sound familiar?)
We’re talking about:
🚀 How being uncomfortable is a secret weapon for growth
📺 What pitching a TV show with zero experience can teach you about courage
🌍 And why joy isn’t just a feeling—it’s a strategy
Happy didn’t climb a ladder—he built his own out of grit, guts, and a whole lot of curiosity. If you’ve been playing it safe, this conversation might just be the nudge you need to shake things up, try something new, and lead with a little more spark.
3 Takeaways You’ll Love:
💥 Discomfort isn’t the enemy—it’s the entry point to confidence
🛠️ You don’t need to be “ready” to take the next step
🌈 Joy is fuel—build it into your leadership style
