"What if the other shoe drops? What if I'm not prepared for something bad happening? If I really let myself feel happy and good and peaceful...what if I lose it all?"And you know what I told her? It makes so much sense that you feel this way.We believe on some level that if we're too happy, too joyful, it'll all be taken away. So there’s safety – protection - in staying small, staying worried, staying prepared for the worst.If we’re always kind of unhappy or numb, it’ll just be another day in the neighborhood. Nothing new here. Nothing to really lose. But here’s the thing. You’ve already lost it all if you’re not enjoying it now. It's already gone. This podcast episode is actually a masterclass that I hosted a couple of months ago, and I wanted to share with you because it's so potent + relevent Joy is resistance. Joy is the shiniest rebellion. Fascist regimes and oppressive systems are on a mission to steal your joy, expression, and creativity. Your life force.Joy is expansiveHopeful And powerful.Your joy is medicinal. Your joy makes you ungovernable. So let's disrupt the story that joy makes you unsafe, shall we?Listen and let me know what lands for you.
