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
