Episode 3592:

Michael Blankenship challenges the idea that joy should be reserved for leisure by showing how embracing fun, even during life’s messiest, most mundane moments, can transform your entire experience. By replacing judgment with curiosity and light-heartedness, you're not avoiding responsibility, you're reclaiming joy as your most powerful, practical tool for everyday living.

Quotes to ponder:

“It’s hard to be fully present and have fun when a part of you is getting lost in a mental maze.”

“You’re too busy thinking negative thoughts to enjoy the good, the bad, or the shit-stained!”

“When fun flourishes, judgment dies.”
