Today’s episode is very candid and unplanned, but I ended up talking about something that is so prevalent in my own life and I'm sure in many of all of our lives. There are SO many topics covered in today’s episode, so I'm hoping you can keep up with my brain dump!
I’m truly so blessed to have you all as a safe space for myself and for each other, thankyou for being here and I really do hope to see you again next week,
Remember to be the change you want to say - if not you, then who? If not now, then when? Here's a video to put into perspective how we can be the change we want to see. I hope this challenged and resonated with you today - love you always.
Until next time, let's keep aspiring to living a life of more Joy, with Intention.

Hey friends, welcome to or welcome BACK to another episode of Joy, With Intention: The Podcast! Today, I basically have a casual chat about my experience on the Lourdes Pilgrimage going as a volunteer for my first time and breaking out of my comfort zone a LOT.
Making new friends and trying new things are things that I usually LOVE to do, but it usually terrifies me and the fear quite often holds me back, but this experience really forced me to just make friends with people I didn’t know AT ALL and couldn’t predict how they would receive me or react.
I learnt SO MUCH from this experience & these interactions and I speak all about it in this episode. Also, you can check out the Instagram reel I mention here! Thankyou so much for being here!
Until next time, let's keep aspiring to living a life of more Joy, with Intention.
