Taking Back Happy | Faith & Encouragement for Midlife Women Reclaiming Their Joy

Show Notes

What if you are not happy, and you don't need to pretend you are? Sometimes taking back happy doesn't mean forcing a smile and a positive attitude. It starts with being honest about what hurts, and then deciding you don't want to stay there. This week, we're talking about three simple steps: Notice. Feel. Move. Maybe happy isn't something you find. Maybe it's something you begin taking back, one honest, courageous step at a time.

What do you do when you look around at your life and think, "This is NOT what I wanted'? Maybe its not fair. Maybe your's grieving something you thought you'd have.

What if you've been choosing between two options that were never your only two options? Stay or go. Try or quit. Trust or never trust again. Married or alone. But what if there is another way?
