Welcome to the Carousel of Happiness Podcast.
Join host Allie Wagner as she takes you on a tour of a special wing of the Carousel of Happiness. A secret spot very few people know about. One that is so close to the carousel, yet so far away. A place tucked away from the din of the ordinary world, an oasis insulated from responsibility. A solitary space where nothing is required, nothing is expected, and nothing needs to be done. Where you’re never missing out, you’re never too late, and you’re never left out. We'll tell you about a place that is similar to the carousel, but still. Silent. Without the bells and the whistles, the squeals and the laughter. A place that is ready for you. Ready to embrace you, to hold you, to support you. Just as you are. Right here. Right now.
Welcome to the Council of Kindness.
