The Follow -up!
In the last episode, I discussed Happy Functional Depression and received lots of feedback. However, I received one particular question: "what's the answer to getting through it?"
At that point, I shared a framework... the "A" Plan, which is a process of having:
- Awareness
- Acceptance
- Action
- Activities
During this episode, I provide perspective on the experience of Happy Functional Depression (which is more common than one might see) and some ways to navigate the journey.
I also share other helpful nuggets to support thinking, exploring, and experiencing more.
To help get others connected to "Journey with Joy Podcast," please share with your friends, family, and anyone working through Happy Functional Depression.

I have a confession...
The Journey of Joy is NOT always sunshine and bliss. The road has many twists, turns, and potholes that add to all the wonderful moments of life. However, we can't be so naïve to think that life would hold back opportunities from us. The opportunity sometimes comes in the form of challenges for us to go to the next level of our journey.
Well, in this episode, I get vulnerable and share a chapter of my journey.
I know I'm not alone because I partner with many clients and speak with many people where I fully see them because I can see fully see me:
- The super ambitious, the strong and determined, the "I got it," the let me protect my heart, the busy, those carry the carry around on their shoulders, the ones with needs but not safe enough to share, the heartbroken and the loved, the ones that care, the ones with vision, and the ones in the process of painting a canvas, the ones with some success and failures, the ones that are resilient, and most important the ones who can be honest and willing, the ones who know there is more and better, the ones who have decided to win, grow, and become and push beyond the resistance of mediocrity.
Listen and sure to share your thoughts or reflections. Send me an email or contact with me on social media @journeywithjoypodcast .
I realize that all parts of the journey are necessary and it can't just be about all the highlighted good parts. Life is N.O.W. - Leave No Opportunity Wasted
