Fun isn’t a luxury.It’s not some reward you get for ticking all the boxes or holding it all together.
Fun is fuel.It regulates your nervous system, reconnects you to presence, and reminds you that joy isn’t frivolous, it’s foundational.
In this episode, we unpack:
* Why fun is one of the most underestimated forms of self-responsibility
* Why research endorses fun over professionalism for creativity, productivity and longevity.
* What it means to let yourself feel good just because.
* Fun is not a trade off for wellbeing.
No outcome required.No productivity badge earned.Just a simple invitation: find something fun, and do it. For you.
Because you’re allowed to enjoy being alive.
