What happens when you stop chasing what you think you should achieve and start focusing on how you want to feel? In this deeply personal episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes of how a simple question asked at my kitchen table transformed not just my life, but my entire approach to goal-setting and planning.

I'll share the story of how my color-coded calendars and perfect routines left me feeling empty, and how I accidentally created what became the Joy Map Workshop—a method that's helped hundreds of people design their most joyful 90 days.

From my pre-diabetic diagnosis turning into a dance party with Miles Davis, to my daughter becoming my business advisor, this episode is all about finding the magic in the mess and creating systems that support your soul, not just your schedule.

What You'll Learn

• The one question that changed everything - How shifting from achievement-focused to feeling-focused planning transforms your entire approach to life

• Why 90-day planning works - The psychology behind quarterly resets and why they're more sustainable than annual goals

• Systems that support, don't suffocate - Creating structure that feels good instead of restrictive

Episode Takeaway

Joy is not a luxury—it's the secret ingredient that makes everything possible. When you design your goals around how you want to feel, you create sustainable change that lights you up from the inside out. Your next 90 days don't have to be another grind through a to-do list; they can be your most joyful yet.

Ready to Experience This for Yourself?

The Joy Map Workshop is happening July 12, and I can't wait to guide you through creating your own heart-aligned 90-day plan. This isn't about doing more—it's about doing what matters in a way that feels amazing.

In today's episode, I'm sharing the one habit that transformed my life—learning how to set up system settings that make joy, ease, and alignment a natural part of my day. Instead of relying on motivation (which, let's be honest, comes and goes), I built daily, weekly, and quarterly systems that allow me to show up for myself consistently.

We'll dive into: ✨ How system settings help build healthy habits that actually stick ✨ Why systems create more ease and joy than goals alone ✨ How I structure my day to stay in flow and aligned ✨ The tools I use (the Joy Map, iPhone reminders, and more!) ✨ Weekly and monthly check-ins to stay on track

And if you've been looking for a way to plan your life with more joy and intention, I'll also share how I use quarterly reflections to evolve my systems—without stress or overwhelm.

Joy isn't just something you hope for—it's something you build into your life with systems that support you every single day. Start with one small system today, whether it's a morning routine, a joy check-in, or scheduling time for yourself. Small shifts lead to big changes!

Remember: Every day may not be filled with joy, but you can create joyful moments every day. Joy is your birthright, my friend! Smile, choose an activity, decide when you are going to do it, and have fun!
