Hi everyone welcome back to Barb knows best the

podcast I am your co-host Michelle Marrows and I'm here with the lovely peaceful bar my dear mom.

Yeah, hi everyone.

Hi I'm so excited to be here again.

Good afternoon.

How are you doing today?

I am, I'm feeling a little bit stressed because the traffic here is extraordinary right now and you know me I can be I can be moved sometimes by

craziness of drivers and traffic so if you've listened to some of our past episodes you've

definitely heard us talk about our little traffic

demon Barb over here. I know. But um taking a lot of deep breaths. I brought myself back

to the present moment. I'm so excited to be here with

you Michelle and with all of our amazingly beautiful guests out there listening

yeah we're so happy to be back I really feel like what we have on the agenda today is

is really well it's good for us because I think we need it. Actually you know always

whenever we talk about things we generally. Yeah. It's things that we need it. Actually, you know, always whenever we talk about things we generally

things that we need to remind ourselves of. But you know, I wanted to, I felt like it was a good time

for this episode to kind of dive into the concept of happiness and joy and cultivating

these feelings because I think, you know know even as a kid I remember when you know people

would say what do you want to be or what do you want to do people just want to be happy

when they quote unquote grow up.

And happiness can feel really elusive,

especially in these times.
