3. Finding Joy Amid Mistakes

Welcome back to another episode of Chasing Joy! This week, Spencer, Wayne, and Bryan dive deep into the messy, imperfect process of seeking happiness and meaning. Join the crew as they candidly explore the slip-ups and life lessons that come with the pursuit of joy—debating what really counts as a “mistake,” sharing personal stories of loss, boundaries, and second chances, and examining how we define joy for ourselves versus how society tries to sell it to us.

The trio gets honest (and sometimes hilariously sidetracked) about learning from pain, setting boundaries, compulsive behaviors, and the importance of mindfulness and gratitude. They reflect on the power of service, the neuroscience behind giving, and the traps of chasing quick dopamine hits in a world full of distractions. If you’ve ever wondered if you’re missing the point on your own journey to happiness—or if all those “mistakes” are really just steps on the path—this episode will leave you thinking, laughing, and maybe even breathing a little deeper.

Settle in, get comfortable, and join us on Chasing Joy as we unpack the setbacks, breakthroughs, and little moments that make the search for happiness so worthwhile.
