About this episode
Joy is part of the practice.
When you can't find it and don't know where to start? Start small. Start by reminding yourself that joy still exists, and it's a frequency vibrating right above our heads, and if we can just poke our heads out of this damned hole, we can find it - tap into it, and use it like the resource it is.
Pay attention to the glimmers that make you feel seen.
The goal is to make the next best choice.
Reclaim your agency by starting with fun, whimsy, and joy.
