Hello and welcome back to the podcast where you are invited for lighthearted conversations

about things that matter as you seek to live your most meaningful, beautiful, and joyful life.

I'm your host, Dr. Edie Wadsworth, and I hope you enjoy your stay here at the House of Joy.

Well, hi, dear ones. Welcome back to the House of Joy. I'm so happy you're here and i'm so happy to be here

dr edie here if this is your first time listening welcome if you're here for every episode we love

you so much thank you for coming back again and again and thank you for all the sweet messages

you have sent us we are so appreciative today we're talking about the little things that are

actually changing my life. Listen, it has been a season. And I find that when things get weird or

hard or in weird transitions or whatever, that it's just good to go back to kind of romanticizing all the little things

that bring us joy. And I've got some good ones to share with you today. I think you're going to

love them. I really do think, too, that often we can say to ourselves, like, okay, once this

season passes, once the kids are older, when we finally get the schedule

right, when there's more time, when I have more energy, then whatever, I'll really enjoy my life

or, you know, I'll get to that place where, you know, things are really easier and more

enjoyable. But I think what we're missing is that we are often rushing past

the things that if we paid attention would create so much joy and life for us. And I just find

that for myself so much lately. So I thought this would be a fun one to share. It's kind of akin to romanticizing

your life, which is not pretending like everything is perfect or okay, but it's about bringing

intention and beauty and presence to what's already there. And I really think I've been

practicing this a lot lately that your life doesn't need to change for your experience

of it to completely transform.

So if that sounds good to you today, I want you to be thinking about all the little things
