In this episode, J&L explore the relationship between two heavy hitter emotions: joy and happiness. How do these two experiences function in relationship, and can one perhaps be a portal for the other to occur? Whose business is our happiness and joy, and who is responsible for these experiences in our partnerships?
Happiness is often outlined as the ultimate goal in a partnership and this episode examines how that might be a simplified expectation that can often lead to disappointment and distance in relationships.
An experience that is worth the pursuit, J&L discuss how living a joyful life is actually a SKILL, and how joy is an independent experience filled with paradox. They explore how happiness may certainly be an activator for joy’s emergence, but that ultimately, joy is a path guided by the soul that supports wholeness, purpose and love.
