Alright friends - this one’s for all the fangirls, the feelers, the ones clinging to joy with both hands right now. In the final episode of Season 3, we’re picking up right where we left off last week: with our JK-5 categories and the idea that sometimes, our joy needs to be delulu-level loud. Because when the world feels heavy, spinning, or just too much to carry alone, sometimes the most radical thing we can do...is let ourselves feel happy on purpose. And to help me unpack all of that? I invited one of my favorite joyful humans - Jackie from Jackie In The Soop - to join the conversation.

Jackie’s a rising star in BTS Army circles and a true light-bearer - full of humor, heart, and the kind of energy that reminds you joy is still allowed here. We talked BTS (a lot - sorry not sorry), delulu culture, and why loving something fully - even if it feels a little silly - isn’t weakness. It’s survival. It’s rebellion. It’s joy, loud and unapologetic. Yes, I fangirled hard in this one. But also? We kept it real. Because delulu joy isn’t just for the fun moments - it’s something to hold on to when everything else feels dark. So whether you’re deep in the fandom or just figuring out what your JK-5s are, this one’s a celebration of whatever makes you feel more like you. Because joy doesn’t have to make sense to anyone else. It just has to be yours.

Okay friends - real talk. How’s your heart feeling right now? In this episode, I’m tossing the original script and inviting you into a more honest, unfiltered check-in. Because the truth is, the world feels heavy right now. And if you’ve been walking around trying to hold both your personal life together and the collective weight of everything going on - same. I had planned to talk about living our joy out loud. And I still believe in that. But this week, I needed to pause and ask: how do we even find joy when we’re carrying so much grief? How do we hold space for both? So, today’s episode is a pulse check. It’s me sharing the messy middle, the questions I’m asking, and the tiny things keeping me anchored. No polished lists. No pretending. Just an open-hearted reflection on what it means to be human right now - and a reminder that maybe joy isn’t frivolous. Maybe it’s resistance. If your heart feels tender, tired, or tangled, this one’s for you. Let’s take a breath together and begin.

What do we do when the world feels like it’s on fire, and joy feels out of reach? In this episode, I am sharing two simple tools I have been leaning on a lot lately when life feels overwhelming and noisy. First, a phrase I picked up from my therapist that helps me pause and take inventory of what’s still good and okay in my world. And second, how I have been using sound frequencies - not because they’re instant magic, but because they help me feel calm when my mind feels loud. This isn’t about fixing everything. It’s about finding tiny moments of peace and choosing to notice what’s good, right here, in our ordinary lives. If you’re feeling a little untethered lately, this one’s for you

Hi friends - this week I am talking about joy. Not the Pinterest kind, and definitely not the “just be grateful” kind. I mean the kind of joy that shows up when we finally unfollow the pundits, delete that apps, and give ourself permission to think our own thoughts again. I didn’t set out to become a digital monk. I just wanted to stop feeling like I was spiraling 24/7. In this episode, I’m sharing what I’ve learned about reclaiming joy when the world feels like it’s on fire - and how curating the right kind of feed (the one that lifts you up instead of making your blood pressure meds work overtime) can be a game-changer. It’s not perfect. But it’s mine. And it might help you find a little peace, too.

Hi Friends! In today’s episode, I’m sharing the path I took to rediscover joy - not the kind that depends on other people or perfect circumstances, but the kind that grows quietly, from within. I walk us through how acceptance, reframing, self-talk, learning to get comfortable with the silence, and using visualization and manifestation helped me rebuild a more grounded version of joy. I talk about what it’s like to sit with uncomfortable truths, quiet the voices that try to pull us down, and slowly find our way back to something steady, gentle, and real. Whether you’re feeling a little lost, or just tired of chasing joy in all the usual places, this episode might be your invitation to pause. To come home to yourself. To find joy in the life you’re already living.

What if being wrong wasn’t a personal failure - but a necessary part of becoming? In this episode, I sit with a question I’ve been circling for years: what if getting it wrong is actually where the growth lives? From growing up in a loud, opinion-packed household to gasping for air on a treadmill while training for a marathon, I trace the ways we’re taught to fear failure - and what it might mean to unlearn that fear. I share how internal dialogue, spiritual grounding, and a lot of unglamorous self-talk have helped me start rewriting my own story about what it means to mess up, fall short, or simply not know. This one’s for anyone who’s ever felt ashamed of making a mistake, scared to say “I was wrong,” or unsure how to hold grace for themselves and others. We talk about accountability, control, softness, and the freedom that can come when we stop demanding perfection - from ourselves or the people we love. It’s not a tidy answer. But maybe, that’s kind of the point.

How do we actually let go of our anger? Not just talk about it. Not just wish it away. But truly release it - so it no longer runs our thoughts, shapes our relationships, or steals our peace. In this deeply personal episode, I finally respond to a question I have been circling for months: “But how did you really let go of your anger? Like, physically - how did you do that?” I walk through the real, messy steps I took on my own healing journey. The tiny choices. The hard truths. The quiet practice of accountability - not as blame, but as a form of liberation. I share the mantras that kept me grounded, the questions that cracked me open, and the moment I realized I didn’t need my anger anymore...because I had finally made space for something else. This isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. It’s a story. A practice. A tool you can try on for size. If you’ve been carrying something heavy - this one’s for you.

Hi friends - join me for Episode 3: The Power of Joy. In this episode, I walk you through two key stepping stones in my healing journey: taking back my power and reclaiming my joy. For me, these two were a packaged deal - a BOGO situation. You can’t have one without the other. I first walk us through the steps I took to reclaim my power - what that actually looked like in my day-to-day life - and how doing so opened the door for joy to return. If you are in a space right now where you're questioning your reality, your truth, or even your voice, give this one a listen. I am sharing the messy, non-linear truth of what it looks like to slowly come back to yourself - one honest conversation, one small ritual, one whispered affirmation at a time. This episode is for anyone who is still in the dark but willing to try. You are not alone.
