    Find the Funny....Even When Times Are Tough

    Ever since he was a kid, Comedian Jerry Caruso has always loved making people laugh....and still does. He performs for a variety of groups, including people going through difficult times; many are fighting cancer or some other illness or challenge. They tell him that even if they're not laughing out loud they are cracking up on the inside, and that joy makes their difficult days a little bit brighter.  Jerry's story reminds us that we all have ways we can make an impact in someone's day....we just have to be intentional about it. He also teaches comedy to college students, so if you don't think you're very funny Jerry offers some tips for improving your comedic skills. You're funnier than you think!

    Cancer Messed with the Wrong Family

    It's easy to find joy in life when things are going well and everyone is happy and healthy, but how do we do it when someone we love gets a life-threatening diagnosis? Charissa Bates, a mom to three beautiful children, knows how. After being diagnosed with a rare and aggressive cancer a few years ago she decided to be intentional about seeking out joy. She leaned into the small things that made her happy, and learned some valuable lessons about perspective during her journey. In fact, to pass on that insight and help other families going through similar situations, she and her husband, along with their young children, wrote a book to help other families gain control and find  joy during tough times.

    People Pleasing Steals Our Joy

    So many of us are "people pleasers" without even thinking about it. In this episode Mindset and Success Coach Rebekah Slider shares a unique perspective on people pleasing. She talks about how we end up feeling when we constantly say yes to people even when we really don't want to. We discuss why we do it (personally and professionally) and strategies for finally standing in our own power and learning to establish and maintain boundaries. You'll also learn a phrase that will change your life.  Get the "Ditch the People Pleasing" ebook that Rebekah talks about at www.rebekahslider.com/page/ditch-the-people-pleasing

    Be a Joy Rebel

    In this episode you'll meet Mike Rathbun, a super cool guy and fellow podcast host and motivational speaker. We share an insightful conversation around joy, happiness, why it's important to seek out joy even when we're surrounded by negativity, and how sometimes it's seen as being rebellious to actual seek out the positivity in life, rather than wallowing in negativity. Thus, we believe in being "joy rebels!" We also talk about the importance of kindness, and how implementing small doses of it every single day is a lot easier than we may think! (When recording this episode Mike was writing his book, "Big Skies and Big Dreams: A Practical Guide to Living Your Happiest Life." Since then it's been released and can be found here.)
