Micro-Joy Moments Are Where It’s At!

We tend to think joy has to be big.

A trip. 
A milestone. 
A celebration with cake and confetti.

But the truth? 

Most of the joy that changes us is small.

Unscheduled. 
Unmeasured. 
Unexpected.

It shows up in a breeze that finds you at the perfect time,
a perfectly timed song,
or the moment you let yourself laugh—really laugh—over the simplest thing.
Joy isn’t frivolous. It’s fuel.

And the more we move toward joy,
the more we might find a better version of ourselves and better versions of those around us. 

It’s not about overhauling our lives but rather looking for the micro-joy-moments—
the tiny glimmers that bring us back to our happiest selves. 
We spend so much of our lives performing:
  • chasing the next role or title
  • pleasing the people around us
  • producing to prove we can do it
  • planning ourselves into exhaustion
But in all that doing, we risk forgetting to feel.
And if we’re not careful, we miss the quiet pull of what actually lights us up.

The soul doesn’t shout.
It nudges.

And it may be worth it to find out where you are being nudged today.
So this is your micro-joy-invitation:
  • Do one small thing that brings you joy today.
  • Give yourself permission to be curious—not perfect.
  • Say yes to something just because it feels good.
Start small.
Stay open.
Smile.

Find your micro-joy-moments today.
And tomorrow, try it once again.
