Description

Have you ever been all-in on a big life change—full of excitement, fresh groceries, new routines—only to lose momentum after a few days or weeks? You’re not alone. Most advice says to “find your why,” and while that’s important, there’s something even more powerful: reconnecting to joy. Not the fleeting emotion, but the steady state that becomes your inner compass, quiet accountability partner, and the fuel that keeps you moving forward.

In this episode, we’ll explore:

• The difference between happiness (an emotion) and joy (a grounded state).
• Why losing sight of joy makes change feel like punishment—and how to shift that.
• How living from joy transforms goals from a “have to” into a “get to.”
• A simple practice to reconnect with joy, even on your busiest days.

If you’ve been grinding toward change and feeling disconnected from the reason behind it, this conversation will help you realign, re-energize, and remember that joy isn’t the reward for change—it’s the reason you’re making it.
