  • #75: Chasing the Wrong Kind of Happy
    2025/05/20

    I used to think happiness came from fitting in, being liked, and checking all the boxes---relationships, achievements, doing what I thought I was “supposed” to do. But deep down, I felt lost, like I was constantly pretending to be someone I wasn’t.

    In this episode, I’m sharing a personal story about what it looked like to chase the wrong kind of happy…and how hitting rock bottom became the turning point that led me back to my true self.

    If you’ve ever felt like you’re not enough, like you need the approval of others to feel valued or worthy, then this episode is for you!

    Life gets busy, stress creeps in, and before we know it, we’re caught up in the rush—worrying about the next thing on our to-do list. But what if we paused for just a moment? What if, instead of letting worry take over, we chose to look for the little reminders of God’s presence all around us?

We’ll talk about why nothing is too big or too small to bring to Him, why even the smallest moments matter, and how shifting your focus can bring a sense of peace and joy to your day.

    So grab your favorite drink, take a deep breath, and let’s dive in.
