    Embracing 03: What brings YOU joy?

    Inviting you to have a cup of coffee with us while we chat about everything and nothing every Saturday morning ☕️ Hiiii friends, thank you for tuning in! On this very chatty and very loosely organized episode, we go through our life updates, the concept of joy and everything that brings us joy. ❤️ With the days get colder and nights get longer, we enter the time of year when “happiness” and “joy” become an inevitable topic for discussion. We give our own unique definitions of joy, and how it is different from the common understanding of happiness. As always, we hope you enjoy! 🌞 - Cola & Chantal Follow us on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coffeewithcolaandchantal/ Time stamp 💫 01:22 Chantal’s life update: running a half marathon, health anxiety for chonky Charley’s physique 04:05 Cola’s life update: relearning how to live alone again, feeling introspective, spiritual things 07:28 Talking about joy on a slightly sad day, coping with the grief 10:44 Long tangent on spirituality, kick starting Scorpio season, Cola’s full moon ritual that nearly set her place on fire 20:30 Things that bring us both joy - cooking, trying out random food, baking, and yoga 27:26 How we define joy, difference between joy vs. happiness 33:40 Self-betrayal, pursuing “happiness” as a form of escape, and how we maintain the state of joy 41:21 Is joy a privileged emotion? Or is it something that gets lost as our society becomes more “developed” and “civilized” because we’ve lost connection with each other? 47:58 What gets in the way of us embracing joy?
