Mambition Moments #17- Lowering Your Joy Threshold: What Children Teach Us About Wonder

A fire engine whizzed past me yesterday, and I instinctively said "WOW!" and waved. Then I realised—I wasn't even with my kids.My 2 and 4-year-old have completely recalibrated what joy looks like for me. Their threshold for delight is impossibly low: a puddle can make their entire morning.Meanwhile, I had trained myself that joy needed to be earned through massive achievements—big promotions, major milestones, spectacular moments. I was always waiting for the big wow, completely missing all the small ones happening around me every single day.In this episode, I explore what happens when we let our children teach us how to notice wonder again. Joy isn't an interruption to the chaos—it's woven into the ordinary moments. If you've been waiting for something spectacular to feel joy, this episode is your permission to find it in the small moments instead.
