What if joy didn't need a reason?

In this episode, I'm sharing what happened when I stopped chasing trends, stopped tying my worth to my work, and finally gave myself permission to be—not just do. As a photographer, strategist, content creator, and podcaster, joy used to feel like a reward I had to earn.

Now? I've redefined joy as something I no longer perform for—but something I create from.

We're talking about what it means to reclaim your joy without guilt, pressure, or permission—and how choosing joy can reconnect you to your purpose, creativity, and freedom.

Inside this episode, you'll learn:

• Why high-achieving creatives often feel disconnected from joy

• How chasing trends can quietly drain your purpose

• What it looks like to shift from productivity to presence

• Why joy is an act of resistance—and a path to creative freedom

Where have you been waiting for permission to feel joy?

What would it look like to give yourself joy—just because?

Press play and let this episode be your reminder: You don't need to earn your joy.

You just need to receive it.
