In this soul-sifting episode of Healed Adjacent, we unpack the art of finding joy that doesn’t come with a return receipt. From ditching the myth that a new city, job, or plus-one will save us, to discovering that the real glow-up is internal (and spoiler: it doesn't require a passport or a personality overhaul), we get real about what it means to cultivate joy from within.

Also on deck: I celebrate a new chapter—yes, it’s my birthday, and yes, I will be reflecting—with equal parts gratitude and main character energy. And finally, we tackle the spiritual (and slightly ironic) pursuit of not pursuing: releasing the hustle, shelving the striving, and daring to exist exactly as God created us. No upgrades necessary.

Tune in for laughter, reflection, and a gentle-but-firm reminder that healing isn't a destinatio ...
