What if joy isn’t a fleeting feeling but the ultimate business strategy?
In episode 280, Air Force veteran, mental health advocate, and transformational leader Kimberly Mitchell — known as the "Joy Warrior" — shares her Journey to Joy System. Kimberly reveals how healing your inner world and rewriting limiting beliefs can unlock unstoppable success in life and business.
We explore why so many women struggle with money mindsets, how to turn fear into fuel, and why curiosity (not hustle) is the ultimate growth tool. From roller skating as an adult to reframing joy in daily tasks, Kimberly’s stories will have you rethinking what’s possible for you and your business.
“Joy isn’t a reward at the finish line — it’s the fuel that gets you there.” — Kimberly Mitchell
