Ep 10 - Joy in Grief: Joy Hunting

from Grief Relief for Christian Women | Widow, Support, Connection, Loss of Spouse, Joy, Grief and Trauma · host Patty Jackson / Certified in Grief and Trauma / Coach for Christian Women

Joy Without Grief — Joy Hunting In this powerful and joy-restoring episode of Grief Relief for Christian Women, we explore what it really looks like to experience joy again after loss — not the fake smile, “I’m fine,” forced kind of joy, but the gentle, God-given kind that grows quietly in the cracks of a broken heart. I’m introducing you to practice Joy Hunting — the intentional act of noticing, receiving, and welcoming joy back into your life, even while grief is still present. Because, ya'll, joy doesn’t show up like a package on your doorstep. After loss, joy becomes something you look for, choose, and allow. And yes… It’s absolutely worth giving it a shot. Through personal stories, spiritual insight, and real-life encouragement, we’ll talk about: Why joy and grief can coexist How God invites you to experience joy without guilt The small, sacred moments where joy quietly returns How to train your heart to notice life again Why joy is not “moving on,” but moving with Grief and God If you’ve ever wondered whether you’ll feel light again, laugh again, or even recognize yourself again — this episode will speak straight to your soul. Grab your journal, or your Notes app on your phone, take a breath, and join me as we learn how to hunt for joy in a season that tried to steal it. Jesus is still writing your story… and joy is still part of it.
