6 Months of Jump Start Your Joy with Paula Jenkins

Lessons from Six Months of Podcasting with Paula Jenkins

Today marks the six month mark of Jump Start Your Joy, AND it also marks my jump into being a full time entrepreneur as a life coach and podcaster. To celebrate all of the amazingness that is going on this week, today’s show pays a bit of tribute to the things I’ve learned along the way. The topic of Joy has been fascinating, and I love speaking with each guest about how they have chosen to follow joy. It’s a true honor and privilege to get to do this each week. Join me as I share my lessons from six months of podcasting.

    Wow. What a long journey you’ve had with this series. Some people give up after a short period of time.

    I have to agree with you on the importance of Improv. With it, you can just keep the flow going. Sometimes you can plan ahead, but it’s always so much more natural when you do so.

    These podcasts sound like they are full of wonderful and positive information. Joy is something that we all strive for but don’t always know how to attain.
