In our January episode, we welcome Emiliana Simon-Thomas, Science Director of The Big Joy Project, for a deeply grounding conversation on joy as a daily practice and a collective responsibility.
Together, we explore what joy truly means beyond fleeting happiness, how it is cultivated through small intentional actions, and why joy is essential not only for personal well-being but for resilient communities. Drawing from decades of research and real-world impact, Dr. Emiliana shares how The Big Joy Project invites people across the globe to reconnect with wonder, gratitude, and human connection, even in times of uncertainty.
This episode is an invitation to slow down, to notice what nourishes you, and to remember that joy is not something we wait for, it is something we practice and share. Rooted in science, compassion, and lived experience, this conversation reminds us that when joy is nurtured collectively, it becomes a powerful force for healing, generosity, and lasting care.
Perfect for a reflective start to the year, this episode offers gentle wisdom, practical insights, and a hopeful reminder that joy is both deeply personal and profoundly communal.
