If you have ever struggled to describe your own depression or understand the depression of a loved one, this is the episode for you.

When was the last time you did something just for fun? Just because it makes you happy. Just because it brings you joy. Something that wasn’t productive, or working towards a goa,l or something that you are doing for someone else. When was the last time you did something truly for you?

I am on a mission this year to try to have more fun. I mean, as dumb as that sounds, I think a lot of us just don’t prioritize feeling joy and feeling good.

And yet, it’s the thing that we’re all seeking. We are all just trying to feel happy and to feel better and to feel good.

So many of us are depressed and anxious and burnt out.

And yet, we don’t prioritize things that will help us access those emotions that we’re looking for.

So, I am on a journey to reframe my life - to put work and energy into things that make me feel good, things that make me feel alive.

I hope that you join me or at least listen in.
