Have you ever felt this pull inside that there's something more for you to be and contribute in this life? Have you ever wondered what your thing is that makes you special and different?
Yeah, that was me until I went through my rock bottom when I discovered my husband's addiction and infidelity.
At that point, I had two choices - I could let it destroy me, or I could level up. That choice began my road to healing, purpose, redemption and growing in to the woman that Jesus made me to be. I'm going to share everything that I've learned along this journey and help YOU do the same thing. Are you ready for the journey? Let's go, it's time to Level Up!

290. 2 Things Getting In the Way of Connecting with Your Spouse
Hey there! Before we dive into today's podcast, let me give you a sneak peek into my chaotic life as a mom wrangling kids for dinner and soccer practice. But hey, this won't be a long episode. I'm thrilled to share that come January, I'm launching a new course, and if you're on the email list, you'll be the first to know, with some exclusive offers coming your way. Today, I'm delving into a topic close to my heart—relationships. I've been thinking about two major hurdles we often face: firstly, not seeing people from the heart, reacting instead of understanding; and secondly, the reluctance to self-reflect when things go awry. Drawing from a recent experience with my son and his teacher, I emphasize the importance of both parties owning up to their roles. So, here's the deal: practice pausing when triggered, understand your own stories, communicate openly, and embrace self-reflection. If you haven't joined the "Resentment Trap '' course, you're missing out—link's in the show notes with a special discount. Lastly, a personal note, Peter and I are sharing a profound story on my new YouTube channel—check it out, share, and tag me. Your support means the world. Love you all and catch you on the next episode!
“We make the unconscious conscious, we speak to the thing that is happening. That's always the starting point is to speak to the thing that is happening.” – Joy Harrington
Reflecting on two common challenges: not understanding people from the heart and avoiding self-reflection.
Speak to your feelings and trigger stories to diminish their power and make the unconscious conscious.
Encouraging a pause when triggered, emphasizing the need to understand personal stories and open communication for healthier relationships.
Don't miss the new YouTube channel; the link's in the show notes. Watch, share, and tag—it's a heartfelt story worth sharing.

286. When Doubt and Fear Hit and You feel like a CRAZY person, DO THIS instead.
In this episode, I, Joy Harrington, find myself driving to an appointment, lost in thought about that inner narrative we all grapple with – that voice telling us we're messing things up, that we're not good enough, that we've made a mistake. I've realized that this critical voice often emerges when I take a chance on something new, something I truly want, and that's a sign I need to confront deep-seated beliefs holding me back. It's an uncomfortable battle within, where I've learned that retreating or backtracking only keeps me in the same old loop. The key, I've discovered, is to lean into the discomfort, ask challenging questions, and shift those limiting beliefs. Even though it might make you feel like a bit of a hypocrite at times, you don't need to lean in 100% of the time, just 51%. It's about embracing the discomfort, changing your internal narratives, and ultimately reshaping your reality. So, don't give up, and remember, the discomfort is a sign of growth.
“Lean into the discomfort of doubt, and be willing to be uncomfortable. It takes a lot and it takes a lot of discomfort to change things, to create a new belief, a new way of being, a new reality."
I share my personal struggle with self-doubt and how it surfaces when we embark on new ventures.
Emphasizing the importance of leaning into discomfort, I encourage listeners to embrace fear and doubt as part of their personal growth journey.
Self-reflection and questioning existing beliefs are key to transforming our lives and shifting our narratives.
The ongoing battle with self-doubt is discussed, with an emphasis on persisting through discomfort for lasting change.

285. Getting what you NEED in relationship
In this episode, I delve into the crucial topic of asking for what you need in your marriage. I begin by sharing a personal story of someone seeking advice on feeling unheard and unfulfilled in their relationship. It's a common struggle, and I stress the importance of open communication to avoid resentment and unhappiness. I highlight the link between self-alignment and personal responsibility, underlining that we have the power to change our circumstances by being true to our desires. Making wise decisions, facing fears, and taking control of our lives are key themes discussed. I also introduce my course, "The Resentment Trap," as a resource for recognizing patterns and living in alignment with our true selves. Join me on this journey towards self-empowerment and personal growth!
“Instead of throwing up your hands and saying, 'Well, I asked for what I need, and I'm not getting it,' take the next step. If they're not giving it to me, then what do I need? Because it's my job, it's my responsibility to determine my life, not theirs.”

Customer Reviews
What a great story!
Right now I have hit rock bottom in life and in my marriage. A friend recommended your show and I just listened to one podcast and it was exactly what I needed to have hope! I am excited to keep listening. Thank you for sharing your story.
I didn’t know I’d find anyone who could relate
I’ve come across your podcast by running into one of your posts that had landed on my IG feed page. Upon clicking your reel that resonated with my current situation, you mentioned how you and your husband had prevailed through all the hardships into a beautiful & trusting relationship after years of hard work. I’ve hit my rock bottom with my husband & we’ve been circling around so much that I know it’s time for a change. At first, I thought this was just childish behavior - now it know that it’s so much more than that - Mental Health, Addictions, Behaviors due to Traumas, the list goes ON. I didn’t come across your podcast until I stalked your profile and thought I related SO MUCH to it that I needed more of your journey! Then I found your podcast, and I was shocked! More so, happy to have found that I’m not alone in this & this can be fixed if both partners are willing to make the change to each be better for themselves and their future. So thank you Joy, for sharing all the vulnerable parts of your story! You don’t know how much you’ve helped me uncover truths about my husband, but most importantly, myself!
In the midst of my rock bottom
Joy and her podcast has been Uh-maxing to me as I recognize I am in the midst of my rock bottom.
I am creating a routine, though it is still being configured what works for me. She has given me so much insight on what is going on with myself and within my relationship that I could never put terms or resolutions too.
I am only up to podcast 38 but her voice is now my morning soothing routine during my exercise. And even when I have a hard time staying on track with what time I start my routine, there isn’t a day I don’t listen to her podcast. I am still learning so much and am so happy to have discipline in at least one faucet so far, and that is learning from Joy in her podcasts.
Thank you joy!
