Description

This week on Beyond the Label we're joined by Holly Matthews - actress, author, founder of The Happy Me Project, and someone who has turned unimaginable grief into a mission of hope, resilience, and authenticity.

From navigating rejection in acting to processing the loss of her husband, Holly shares how creativity, self-development, and a late ADHD diagnosis have shaped her journey. Together we explore:


  • Why creating (not consuming) can be a lifeline in tough times
  • How masking shaped her early career - and what unmasking really looked like
  • The reality of rejection sensitivity and emotional resilience with ADHD
  • Building The Happy Me Project from the depths of grief into a movement helping thousands


In this week's episode of ADHD Beyond the Label, Holly joins Phil Anderton and John Reynolds to share her raw, powerful, and full of positivity story. If you've ever felt "too much," struggled with self-belief, or searched for light in dark times - this conversation is for you.
