Ep. 156: Joy Isn't Gone... We Just Stopped Looking

Send us Fan MailAfter a trip to Disney at Christmas, I found myself asking why that joy feels so intense—and why it often feels harder to access in everyday life.Children expect good things. They stay present. They allow themselves to feel excitement without protecting themselves from disappointment. As adults, we often do the opposite—and somewhere along the way, joy gets quieter.In this episode, I talk about how joy can exist alongside responsibility, stress, grief, and loss. I share what Disney reminded me about presence, curiosity, play, and allowing ourselves to feel moved again—especially after heartbreak.You don’t need a vacation to feel magic.
