Stop Thinking Start Doing Alicia Papa, Erin Brewer, & Mary Bowlby

In this episode, we have a heartfelt conversation with our dear friend Maria,  a Spiritual warrior in search of her Holy Grail—Joy—and on a sacred mission to share with all on her journey. She is a Teacher, a dreamer, a hopeless Romantic, and a fledgling entrepreneur as the founder/creator of The Bespoke Rose and one half of Sun & Roses.But her most important roles are being an Aunt, a sister, a partner, a daughter, an ally, and friend.

We discuss the significance of joy and the art of embracing various emotions. We discuss the inspiration we found  from the book "Thank And Grow Rich" by Pam Grout and share personal experiences, emphasizing the importance of creating a supportive community that celebrates joy and offers compassionate presence during challenging times. We share about the impact of departed loved ones and the ripple effect of our actions on others. And we highlight the transformative power of music in altering emotional states.

In this episode, we explore the concept of joy, distinguishing it from fleeting happiness. Joy is described as a deep sense of contentment and gladness that activates the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting calmness.

We delve into passive joy, finding contentment in the present, and active joy, sharing joyful moments. Emphasis is placed on being present, embracing genuine joy over chasing temporary happiness, and the vulnerability of sharing joy.

This discussion highlights the significance of joy in embracing one's true self, not deriving it from material possessions, and fostering self-reflection.

We also stress the importance of sharing joy with others and offer opportunities to join our supportive community on this journey of discovering and experiencing joy.
