Blooming Into Your True Life | Redefining Happiness as Fulfillment, Purpose, and Continuous Growth

Barb Scala defines happiness with one word: bloom. She shares how it became the core metaphor for her life and work—reminding women that, like gardens, they need ongoing tending, nutrients, and light to keep growing into who they’re meant to be.

In this episode of Women’s Health, Wealth, and Happiness | Interviews to Inspire, Barb explains that blooming is less about a perfect title or credential and more about listening to the inner nudge that says, “There’s something more,” and being willing to take the next aligned step even when it feels scary. ​

Barb is honest that happiness is not a constant state; she leans into words like joy, contentment, and fulfillment—feelings that can coexist with hard days when a woman knows she’s living closer to her true values and contributing in a way that matters. She shares her own pivot from law and divorce mediation into coaching, catalyzed by an unexpected divorce that cracked open questions about purpose, service, and “something more.”

​Your desire to bloom is not random; it’s a signal that you’re ready, you already have more than you think, and your next season of happiness will emerge as you honor that call.​
