Episode 24 - Unexpected Micro-Moment of Joy: Metaphor from Outside the Shopping Mall

Summary: In this quick and fun episode, Shirley shares a surprising moment from her day that brought a little dose of joy. She dives into how this unexpected sight led to some deeper thoughts: What if we all embraced being different and brought a little joy into places we don’t quite fit? Why not be the unexpected in a world full of conformity?

Key Points:

• Shirley’s unexpected source of joy.
• The metaphor: Why can’t we be the "tomato plants" in our lives, bringing something real and different where it’s not expected?
• Letting go of fitting in and embracing our unique selves.
• How we can change the overwhelming structures of the world by bringing in small elements of our nature and humanity

Takeaway: Today, give yourself permission to bring something unexpected and joyful into the world just by being your unique self.
