Joy check. What are you building right now that brings you joy? A project. A business. A podcast. A community. An idea you can’t stop thinking about. Joy has a funny way of pulling leadership out of us. Not because we’re trying to be “leaders”… but because we care enough about something to share it. When you put your work into the world, you give people a chance to: • Learn from you • Collaborate with you • Support what you’re building • Be inspired by your passion That’s leadership in action. So today is your permission slip. 👇 Drop a link to something you’re creating or excited about. A website. A podcast. A project. An event. A community. Let’s celebrate what everyone here is building and spread a little joy around the internet today. 🚀

For a long time, many of us have lived by an endurance model. Push through. Do a little more. Rest later. But lately I’ve been thinking about something different. Not endurance… regeneration. The idea that life works better when we regularly refill the tank instead of constantly running on empty. I’ve been exploring this idea as I prepare for the Joy-Led Leadership Forum in May here on Skool, but honestly, it applies just as much to our everyday lives. How we structure our weeks. How we take care of our energy. How we create space for joy, connection, and rest. Because when we feel restored, everything tends to work a little better. Our thinking. Our relationships. Our creativity. 👇 Sunday prompt: What helps you regenerate? A walk. Quiet time. Time with friends. Music. Movement. Share below. Your ritual might be exactly what someone else needs to try this week. ✨

Sunday doesn’t have to be about getting ready for Monday. It can be about remembering who you are before the week asks anything of you. Joy is fuel. Joy is grounding. Joy is how we walk into a new week with more steadiness and less stress. So today, we’re not overthinking. We’re choosing lightness. We’re choosing connection. We’re choosing a little fun on purpose. The world will give us enough seriousness tomorrow. Today, let’s lead with joy. Today’s Joy Prompt: What’s one thing you can do today that will help you start the week feeling lighter? Name it. Do it. Enjoy it. 💛

You don’t need momentum. You don’t need productivity. You just need a gentle beginning. Joy often meets us there.

This year, I’m not chasing more. I’m choosing WITH. 💛 So many years are built around pushing, proving, and doing it all on our own. This year, I’m choosing something different. My word for 2026 is WITH. WITH support. WITH community. WITH faith. WITH presence. WITH joy - not waiting at the finish line, but walking beside me every step of the way. WITH reminds me that I don’t have to carry everything alone. That growth is better shared. That joy multiplies when we stop isolating and start inviting. This year isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about choosing who and what I walk with. So as this new year begins, I’m asking myself one simple question: What do I want to be with more consistently this year? And I’ll ask you the same. Today’s Joy Prompt: What does WITH look like for you this year - who, what, or how do you want to walk forward?
