1769: Why We Hide Our Joy — and How to Share It Openly

Oct 7, 2025

Joy is one of the most natural feelings we have — yet, strangely, one of the hardest to show. Somewhere along the way, many of us learned to keep it quiet, to tone it down, or to wait for “the right moment.” But joy isn’t meant to be contained. In this episode, we explore why we sometimes hide our happiness and how sharing it freely can bring calm, connection, and light to everyone around us.

Thanks for Listening!
