Joy isn’t just something that happens to us—it’s something we reclaim, often in the smallest, most rebellious ways.
In this episode of our Reclaiming Yourself mini-series, we’re talking about what it really means to find joy again—not in the grand, sweeping moments, but in the tiny acts of defiance that remind you who you are. When life feels heavy, when responsibilities take over, when you’ve been operating on autopilot, joy can feel like a distant memory. But what if it’s closer than you think?
We’ll explore: ✨ Why joy isn’t about waiting—it’s about choosing ✨ The hidden reasons we subconsciously push joy away ✨ How “small rebellions” (like saying no, resting, or dancing in your kitchen) can reconnect you to yourself ✨ A simple practice to invite joy back into your life today
This isn’t about forcing happiness—it’s about creating space for the things that make you come alive. Let’s find that spark again.
