The Joyful Enough: Recent Episodes
Lisa Holloway
Hey, cool friends. My name is Lisa and this is The Joyful Enough, a weekly podcast where we are going to take a deep-dive into subjects like business, parenting, marketing, relationships, social selling, boundaries, emotional health and strategies to create sustainable success in your life exactly where you are WITHOUT having to sacrifice yourself to get there. Money is great, we love financial freedom, but Time and Joy are our personal favorite currencies here and we want to emphasize the importance of life outside of work too. Together we're going to discover what our minimum requirements for a Joyful Enough are and build the life of our dreams, brick by brick, from there. If you are ready to trade hustle for happy, you've found the right place. Welcome to The Joyful Enough with me, Lisa Holloway.
Do you feel like "figuring it out" is always just out of reach? Are you working all of the time and feeling like you just aren't seeing the progress to match it? Are you on the edge (or over the edge) of burnout? Let's talk about how to recognize and come back from that edge.
Do you feel like you are working so hard and getting nowhere? Do you feel like your energy is constantly being pulled in so many different directions that you can't effectively accomplish anything you mean to? Are you burnt out or on your way to burnout? Let's fix that. The Big 5 energy zones are the key to unlocking the life you have been dreaming of and there is no hustle required.
Parenting is like…really hard. Let’s talk about how we can find peace in our parenting and use simple strategies to change their world and our own too. Even if you aren’t a parent yet or don’t plan to become one, I encourage you to give this episode a listen and see if these strategies don’t guide you to a more joyful life too.
They say to "follow your heart", "trust your gut" and "do what you think is best"...but they didn't explain HOW to do that. I want to introduce you to something I call The Big Three: Intuition, Integrity and Intentionality to guide you home to the balance you've been searching for outside of yourself. Let's discuss how these three forces impact your home, business and even how we see ourselves.
What does this season of your life feel like? Are you choosing your seasons or along for the ride? We are going to discuss seasons of success, our roles inside of them and how to stop taking the rain with us. Reach out after the show and let us know what you think about this episode!
Life got you feeling burnt out? Are you asking yourself, "When will it be enough? When will I get a chance to slow down and just enjoy my life?" That's where I found myself a few years ago and that started my journey to finding my Joyful Enough and teaching other creative entrepreneurs and families to do the same. We are going to discuss how to get honest with ourselves about what we really want from our work, relationships and life in general and how to mindfully strip away what no longer serves us to make room for what brings us the most joy. A joyful life is a successful life and we can trade hustle for happy to find it.
This is The Joyful Enough, with me, Lisa Holloway.
Hey, I’m so glad you're here. This podcast is a dream coming true for me and I cannot wait to launch the first five episodes with you on 5/5/22 wherever you get your podcasts. My name is Lisa and I’ve been an entrepreneur for more years of my life than not, constantly making changes or trying something new because I found myself inevitably in a state of burn out and I was sure that if I just found the right system, right conditions or made the right connections my life would just start “working” for me. If I could just make it to the top of this hill, everything would be easier after that. I will have time to rest after this deadline. I’ll have a chance to be more present with my kids after this launch. If I don’t chase this lead right now, the opportunity will be gone. But there is always another hill to climb, another deadline to meet and another launch to plan, another lead to follow, isn’t there. So what now? If I can’t work myself to happiness, how would I ever get there? Tell me if this sounds familiar: On the good days, I still blamed myself for not being more productive, often missing the weight of what I DID do that day, especially if I did things for myself. On the bad days, I blamed myself for basically EVERY dreadful thing I could think of (and believe me, I could come up with some creative ways to hurt my own feelings when I get rolling).
These same two questions seemed to play on repeat in my mind and I wasn’t sure I would ever find an answer: “ When is it ever just going to be ENOUGH?” “When will I just be ENOUGH?” I finally found peace, as cliche as it may sound, in chasing progress over perfection in not just my businesses, but my marriage, motherhood and possibly most importantly, within myself as well.
It took a lot to find this version of myself that could slow down, say no and trust my gut the way I do now and I’m grateful for every painful and beautiful lesson that brought me to this place of self-acceptance and presence in my life again.
Have you ever felt like you were going through the motions, but not really LIVING your own life? Like the days were unpredictable and monotonous at the same time somehow?
Becoming a student of healthy habits around business, family, marketing, boundaries, relationships, mindful intention setting and strategies to avoid burnout and overwhelm, changed my life and that’s what I want to share with you here.
Coaching small businesses, families and neurodivergents to find their way off of the Chaos Carousel and into a joyful life of sustainable success, that’s kinda my thing.
Your vision of a joyful life may not look like anyone else’s, but it never needed to. What is enough for you IS enough and you SHOULD enjoy it.
In this place, we are going to talk about how to rewrite your perception of success to fit your life and how to take action to gain on those goals and standards starting right now. If that sounds like something you might be into, we would love to have you subscribe to the podcast now, tell your friends and follow along as we build this community on TheJoyfulEnough.com
If you are ready to trade burnout for boundaries, come on in. If you are ready to trade perceived perfection for positive presence, stay awhile. If you are ready to trade hustle for happy, welcome home.
