Welcome back to The Happy Wife Mentor Podcast!

When was the last time you did something just for fun without guilt, a to-do list, or someone else in mind?

In this episode, Jenny shares her honest journey of realizing she had forgotten how to have fun and why so many women in their 40s feel the same way. From juggling work, parenting, and relationships, fun often takes a backseat. But as Jenny powerfully reminds us: your happiness is your responsibility, and joy isn’t a luxury. It’s essential.

You’ll learn how to identify what fun means to you, the three types of fun to explore (physical, creative, and social), and simple mindset shifts to start prioritizing joy again, even if you’re already stretched thin.

What you’ll learn:

• Why fun isn’t selfish. It’s necessary for emotional wellness
• The 3 types of fun and how to explore each one in your current season
• How to release the guilt and actually make time for fun
• Why your calendar is the secret weapon for joyful living
• A challenge to help you reconnect with your happy, vibrant self

If you’ve been stuck in “doer” mode and forgot what lights you up, this episode is your wake-up call. Jenny’s practical tips and real-life stories will remind you that fun is available to you right now—and it's time to take it seriously.
