"Being the smartest person in the room is fun for a little bit, but you're not gonna grow from that."

Joy seems an unlikely companion in a world where tragedy and life-altering conditions often cast long shadows. Yet, today's guest challenges everything we thought we knew about happiness in the face of adversity. Meet Rebecca Scott, a woman who received a multiple sclerosis diagnosis and, instead of succumbing to despair, chose to dance with joy. Her story isn't about ignoring pain or forcing a smile; it's a raw, honest exploration of finding light in the darkest corners of life.

Prepare to have your preconceptions shattered as Rebecca reveals her revolutionary approach to "microdosing joy." She'll show you how the smallest moments of delight can become a lifeline in a storm and why choosing happiness isn't just brave - it's transformative. This isn't just a podcast; it's an invitation to reconsider your relationship with joy and ask yourself: in your darkest hour, do you have the courage to choose happiness?
