And how does that make you feel? | JOY Episode 5: Barriers to Entry

Mar 17, 2026    Marcus Johnson, Jordan Wolfe, Blair Bauman

Joy can feel easy to recognize in the past—but harder to hold onto in the present.


In this episode, we’re wrapping up our series on joy by reflecting on meaningful seasons of life and asking an important question: how do we stay aware of joy while we’re actually living it? Together, we explore practical ways to stay present, reduce distractions, and recognize the good happening right now.


As this conversation closes out the series, we also look ahead. Joy isn’t something we leave behind when other emotions show up—it’s something we carry with us as we navigate every season of life.
