from Joy First®
Some episodes arrive perfectly lit, well-rested, and uninterrupted.This was not one of them.This one arrived after bedtime, dinner, swimming lessons, forgotten groceries, a squeaky dog toy, and that low-level anxiety of juggling what work needs and what everybody else needs.Which, actually is the perfect place to talk about baselines and audits.I just audited my entire life using the same framework my clients and I have used for over a decade (with a few updates and upgrades) and I got my 'joy number' or Joy First Pulse (JFP): 75/100.In this episode, I break down:The 6 categories I measured (and my scores in each)Why I created the Joy First AuditWhat I'm doing about my lowest scores (spoiler: I've already re-started HRT conversations, and am vlogging the process)How you can take the audit yourself (including a custom GPT to help you action it)Why I'm launching on Substack and what that meansThis is the baseline. The messy starting point. The "where I actually am" before the experiments begin.If you're brilliant at your work but struggling with adulting or self-care or 'balance'... this one's for us.
