Life has been an adventure since we last connected, and so much has happened—both joyful and challenging. First, I want to say THANK YOU for your support and patience during my absence. I appreciate you all, and today, we’re playing a little catch-up.

Since Episode 5, my daughter attended Senior Prom, I celebrated my anniversary and Mother’s Day weekend, and my grandmother’s health took a few difficult turns. But then, the event that truly rocked my family: the passing of my mother-in-law, just days before Mother’s Day. As we navigated grief, we still had to show up for life's milestones—welcoming family for graduation, celebrating achievements, and confronting the new reality that follows loss. Through it all, the love and support we've received have been invaluable.

In today’s episode, we’re unpacking:

• A reflection on loss & resilience: How grief and joy intertwine, shaping the way we move forward.
• Current events that caught my attention: From Memorial Day tributes to storms that tested FEMA's preparedness, plus the latest developments in politics, including former President Biden's health and a sweeping Republican bill impacting taxes, spending, and social programs.
• What Trump done did now: From a luxury jet deal to blocking international students, his latest moves continue stirring controversy.

Finally, our TOP Segment dives into Joy vs. Happiness—two emotions often confused, yet deeply different in how they shape our well-being. We’ll explore:

• How happiness is fleeting and externally triggered, while joy is a deeply rooted state of being.
• The importance of cultivating joy, making it an intentional practice that sustains us through life’s toughest moments.
• Why joy gives us the strength to not only support ourselves but uplift those around us.

This episode is about reflection, transformation, and choosing joy—even in the rain. So tune in, challenge the narrative, and embrace the spirit of transformation. Let’s grow—together
