Coming Back to Joy (feat. Dr. Erin Baker)

Listen Later

It's hard to know what joy is, but we all know it when we've lost it.


This weeks Dr. Erin Baker (they/them) is a self-leadership coach and the author of the bestselling Joy-Full AF: The Essential Business Strategy We’re Afraid to Put First. They are on a mission to help heart-centered entrepreneurs, creatives, and change-makers create prosperous, difference-making, joy-full AF businesses and lives.

Join us this week as we discuss:

  • What in the world joy is and why we know when we've lost it
  • Why we need to keep consuming joy
  • How joy and creativity are intertwined and vital towards one another
  • Why dropping the "shoulds" can help lead you back to creativity
  • Gamifying experiences or tasks that are sucking the joy
  • The importance of the beginner's mindset
