We all have seasons where we're checking the boxes, hitting our goals, and staying busy...but still feeling disconnected from joy. If you've ever wondered why success doesn't always translate to happiness, pull up a chair.
I sat down with Dr. Judith Joseph, a board-certified psychiatrist, researcher, and author, to talk about the science of joy, resilience, and a little-known condition called anhedonia, the inability to feel joy. We talked about why so many high achievers struggle to feel fulfilled and what we can do to reconnect with ourselves and slow down.
You'll learn:
- What anhedonia is and why it often goes unnoticed
- The surprising ways burnout and overworking can mask deeper struggles
- Why joy isn't a luxury, it's essential to being human
- Simple ways to begin rebuilding joy in your everyday life
- Why self-awareness is a powerful first step toward healing and growth
Dr. Judith shares practical tools, research-backed insights, and an encouraging reminder that joy is not something you have to earn, it's something you deserve. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready to create more meaning in your life, come sit at our table and remember you’re always welcome to chime in here!
