EP 33 - Follow The Nudges That Bring The Joy - with Jessica Janzen

Hard Beautiful Journey - Vulnerable Conversations about Grief, Trauma, Addictions and Mental Health

Have you ever met someone and you instantly felt Pure Joy radiating from them - like there was a giant ball of sunshine surrounding them and lighting everyone up who was in their presence? I have and wow, it’s pretty damn special when you get these opportunities. My opportunity came about 1.5 years ago when I attended a videography & photography workshop. There was this woman in the class with me who I just knew was pretty damn special….

This woman was Jessica Janzen. She came up to me and introduced herself and asked me a couple questions about myself, including about my family and she told me about her three kids, including one in Heaven…..and then she dropped a love bomb on me….She said she had been watching me doing the filming outside and that I had something special….I mean, I just met this person and she made me feel like a million bucks.

I learnt a valuable lesson that day from a complete stranger - you can bring joy to other people’s lives by acting on nudges from your heart to say something kind to someone, to give a smile to a stranger that may need it, to hold the door open for someone, or to just be there to listen when someone needs to talk.

There are so many ways to Bring The Joy and follow the nudges in your heart and Jess is here to talk with us about how she is doing this after experiencing the PROFOUND LOSS from the death of her son Lewiston at 6 months old.
