The Resilient Joy Podcast

This is the Resilient Joy podcast, where Danet Peterson and Kensi Evans explore building resilient joy, inside and out.

Kensi and Danet believe joy is the sum of our life's collective experiences. It is the overarching theme as we experience the entire gamut of human emotions. Our ability to feel, experience, and maintain joy as we go through life's challenges, attests to the resilience of the human spirit. The presence of joy does not mean there is an absence of pain, challenging/uncomfortable emotions, or conflict, but rather, demonstrates the reality that joy is the ability of individuals to make meaning and maintain hope in all circumstances, highs and lows.

"Resilience is built in every day choices to get back up when life knocks you down." - Danet

Kensi Evans

Hi everyone! I’m Kensi Evans. I am 33 years old. I have been married to my husband, Brett, 13 years & we have 4 boys: Brig, Abel, Kimball, Leo. We are currently living in Costa Rica-- what a beautiful adventure! In Dec 2023, I graduated with my bachelors degree in marriage & family studies. Currently, I am a part of a nonprofit I helped start in 2023, Brighter Community Resources. I'm working on growing it still!

I love reading, podcasts, going to the beach, swimming in the ocean, yoga, hiking, & sleeping. I love to sing & make up silly songs. Life really would be more fun as a musical. I feel passionate about learning from & about people & love to foster connections. I love to learn about people’s goodness and strengths. I love chatting with someone who is as excited/intrigued about what we are talking about as me! So doing this podcast with Danet is a dream come true!
