In this episode of I’m Perfectly Divine, I’m sharing the surprising lessons I learned through my 30-Day Play Challenge—a journey that far exceeded my expectations and left a lasting impact on me and those around me. Whether you joined the challenge or not, this conversation is a loving reminder of the power of play to shift us in the most simple, yet profound ways.
Join me as I explore the unexpected wisdom that play can reveal, including:
✨ How just 5 minutes of play a day can radically transform your relationship with yourself
✨ The hidden resistance that shows up when we try to play—and what it reveals about our inner dialogue, self-imposed rules, and buried expectations
✨ The ripple effect of choosing joy—how play reawakens creativity, invites new connections, and unexpectedly impacts those we love
✨ What we lose when we narrow play to performance—and how to reclaim playful self-expression at any age
✨ How simple, playful moments can quietly heal old patterns of self-denial, people-pleasing, and holding back
This challenge changed how I see myself, my capacity for joy, and the ease with which we can welcome more fun and love into our lives. Tune in to hear what my son said that almost brought me to tears, how strangers became playmates, and why reclaiming play might just be one of the most life-giving acts of self-love we can offer ourselves.
And should you start playing, tag me, I would love to hear how it made you feel!
