Learning How to Have Fun Again

from Momma Drama and Trauma · host Jenny Kuemmel

For a long time, I thought I had simply gotten busy.And maybe that's exactly what happened.Between raising three boys, helping run a business, managing a household and carrying the responsibilities of everyday life, I slowly stopped paying attention to the things I enjoyed.Not because I was unhappy.Not because I didn't love my life.Life just got full.In this episode, I'm sharing what it was like to realize I had lost touch with the parts of myself that always brought me joy. The books I loved reading. The writing and journaling that helped me process life. The creativity that eventually led me to create Momma Drama and Trauma.This isn't a conversation about finding joy through some huge life change.It's about the small moments that helped me reconnect with myself.A good book.A journal page.Music in the kitchen.A creative idea.A quiet morning.Because sometimes finding yourself again looks a lot like remembering what you loved all along.If you've ever looked around and wondered what happened to the things that used to make you feel like you, this conversation is for you.And if today's conversation resonated with you and you'd like to stay connected, I'd love to have you join me over at MommaDramaAndTrauma.com.You can also find me on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and YouTube at Momma Drama and Trauma, where I share reflections, stories and little moments that don't always make it into the podcast.I'd love to continue this journey with you there.
