The Joy Life

I am officially CLOSING DOWN this amazing podcast. It's been a whirlwind of a journey creating this show, and I truly have loved it! I talk about all the reasons why I'm no longer producing the show in this episode, and you'll hear about the future of podcasting for me and my business (AND - for you!)

*Please note: in the episode, I said my new podcast would be coming out "next month" in February 2020, but the date is of release is NOT official.*

THANK YOU FOR BEING A LISTENER! :) <3

Which one's more important to you: your day-to-day joy or the happiness you get from fulfilling your purpose? Neither is the "correct" answer, but we tend to concentrate a little too much on the little joys of life. It's important to look at your purpose, too, and try to fulfill that! Without doing so, you're only setting yourself up to burn out on trying to be happy in small ways every single day. Learn about this other aspect of happiness now.

The journey to happiness is very different for every person. Sometimes, your happiness doesn't align with someone else's, and that might cause some problems!

It's time you live your best dang life!

The journey to happiness can be a long one. It's even longer if you spend all of your time trying to make everything around you better, but you're not working on the view you have of yourself. Happiness begins with your own self-acceptance. There's no other way to go about it! Listen in for more details about this and why it's important, and how to start the process of fully accepting yourself as who you are.
