Daily Happy Episode 58: Wonder

Ever notice how life sometimes feels less like a thrilling rollercoaster and more like you accidentally boarded the “Taxes & Traffic Jams” ride? That’s exactly why I’ve been thinking a lot about wonder—yes, the thing kids are pros at and adults forget exists somewhere between email 47 and 48.

But here’s the twist: wonder isn’t childish. It’s a leadership superpower.

When we pause long enough to notice the small, surprising, beautiful things around us—a butterfly, a goofy squirrel, a moment of quiet—we reset our brains. We get more curious. More creative. More human. And leaders who stay curious lead with clarity, compassion, and possibility.

So today, I’m choosing wonder. A tiny moment of “wow” in the middle of the “now.”
 Because it doesn’t just make us feel better—it helps us lead better.

Wishing you a bright, joyful, wonder-filled day ahead.
