In this week’s pep talk, Lindsey reminds us that joy is not a reward — it’s a birthright. She unpacks the guilt that can come with feeling good, especially in a world full of pain, and invites listeners to let joy coexist with grief, struggle, and healing. Joy isn’t a betrayal — it’s a form of resilience. This episode is a call to let yourself feel good again, without guilt.
Your Weekly Pep Talks were created to be a quick dose of good vibes and soulful reminders to help you stay grounded, inspired, and ready for whatever life throws your way. Expect 7-10 minutes of motivation, mindset shifts, and a little love tap to get you back in alignment—fast, fierce, and from the heart. No fluff, just the boost you didn’t know you needed. New pep talks every Friday!
