Designer and author Ingrid Fettel-Lee joins Mark to explore how our surroundings shape emotions and how small, repeatable moments of joy build resilience. Drawing on design, psychology and practical exercises, Ingrid guides listeners through "joy spotting," micro-rituals and simple environment changes—color, light, plants and shapes—that make daily life more uplifting.

The episode offers actionable tips for creating and sharing joy, balancing grief and care for others, and using tiny practices to reset stress and strengthen wellbeing. Resources mentioned include a free "50 Ways to Create Joy" guide and joyful conversation starters for home and work.
