Daily Happy Episode 31: Big Thank you!

“You got me to hold my hand… You got me  to understand…” 🎶

(Let’s be honest, my kids are not wrong when they say I never get the lyrics quite right.)

So here on The Daily Happy, we’re throwing it back to one of my all-time favorite feel-good songs: “I Got You Babe” by Sonny & Cher. But this time, it’s not just a retro jam—it’s a giant thank-you note to our incredible tribe.

You know who you are who have guided the podcast with kindness and  love—Andrew, Grant, Jp, Kiki, Shay, Farida, Jen, Jane, June, Marya, Liz, Petra, Sheryl, Sonja, Syd and Rena, and in no particular order: the rest of the large family,  our amazing lifetime friends posse, friends from Tennessee High School in Bristol, TN,  the gang from TN/VA, my brilliant Bryn Mawr sisters, my business brainiacs from NYU Stern, and our wonderful crew from Coveleigh, the cities of Rye and NYC, HelloCareer Guru Board, colleagues on LinkedIn, the wonderful guest stars and anyone I may have missed and beyond. Whoops, this is starting to sound like a long winded oscar speech–what would my comedic and writer inspiration whispers like Alison, Fran, Kim and Robin say. Seriously, it feels like I’ve got a cheer section spanning zip codes, time zones, and multiple decades of questionable fashion choices.  

AND backing this podcast with facts, turns out, science says feel-good music actually boosts dopamine, builds emotional resilience, and reminds us we’re never dancing through life alone—even if we’re dancing in mismatched socks and had to read our podcast script.

So the next time you need a lift, cue up “I Got You Babe,” grab a hairbrush mic, and sing like your Wi-Fi depends on it. 

Listen to  The Daily Happy on spotify  for more joy bites, pop culture pick-me-ups, and the occasional musical thank-you.
And from the bottom of my heart—thank you for being part of this journey. You got me, and I got you, babe. God bless, be safe, much love, have a bright and happy day. XO
