šŸ’› Welcome to The JOY Project
You’re in the right place. This isn’t another program. This isn’t something to figure out. This is one simple practice: šŸ‘‰ Send one joyful text a day. That’s it. One message. One person. One moment that could change someone’s day. šŸ’› Why this exists We are on our phones all day. And most of what we see? Stress. Noise. People needing something from us. So we’re flipping it. We’re using the same device… šŸ‘‰ to create connection instead of consume it. Because people aren’t lacking information. They’re lacking being seen. āš”ļø What to do next 1. Read the pledge below 2. Comment: ā€œI’m in šŸ’›ā€ 3. Send your first joyful text today Don’t overthink it. Just send it. šŸŒ The mission We are building a movement of 1,000,000 people sending one joyful text a day. Because when one person chooses joy, it changes their day. When thousands do… it changes everything. šŸ’¬ Need a place to start? Send this: ā€œI was thinking about you today and just wanted you to know you matter to me.ā€ That’s it. You’re already doing it. Joy isn’t something we wait for. šŸ‘‰ It’s something we create. Let’s go. šŸ’›šŸ“±

I want to be really clear about where we’re going. The JOY Project is shifting. Not away from joy… šŸ‘‰ deeper into it. Because here’s what I’ve been seeing: We talk about joy. We think about joy. We even want more joy. But most people aren’t practicing it. And without practice… nothing changes. So we’re simplifying. šŸ‘‰ One Joyful Text a Day. That’s the new direction. That’s the new focus. That’s the new mission of this space. Why? Because it’s: - Simple enough that anyone can do it - Human enough that it actually matters - Consistent enough to create real change This isn’t about motivation. It’s about behavior. It’s about choosing, daily, to reach out and create a moment of connection. Because most people aren’t struggling with what to do… They’re just not doing the small things that actually make a difference. This is one of those things. Starting Wednesday, I’ll invite you to take a simple pledge: šŸ‘‰ Send one joyful text a day. That’s it. No perfection. No pressure. Just practice. Because joy isn’t something we wait for. It’s something we create. And we’re going to prove that—together. šŸ’›

Joy when you least expect it
It’s been wild this week and the kids have been very active. To say i’m overwhelmed and stressed is an understatement. We had errand to do today which translates to take three kids in the car for around three hours which in itself is a feat not for the faint at heart. Had to stop as a couple of them unbuckled their seats. While buckling them in the oldest says ā€œI’m a thirsty as a COWā€ šŸ¤£šŸ˜­šŸ˜‚ She’s trying to figure out sayings. She’s got a way to go. But that made my husband bust out laughing and we are still smiling! Look for the joy no matter how small!

I want to let you in on something early… because this matters. Over the next few days, you’re going to start seeing a shift in here. By Wednesday, we’re aligning around a new shared focus: šŸ‘‰ One Joyful Text a Day. One message. One moment of connection. One simple way to bring more joy into someone else’s life. That’s it. No overwhelm. No complicated system. Just a daily practice that anyone can do… and everyone can feel. This is becoming the mission of The JOY Project. Not just talking about joy… But actively creating it. Every single day. On Wednesday, I’ll invite you to take a simple pledge: To send one joyful text each day. To someone in your life who might need it… or simply deserves it. Between now and then, I’m going to start sharing more - why this matters, what I’ve been seeing, and how powerful something this small can be. For today, just sit with this: šŸ’¬ Who is someone you could send a kind, unexpected message to? No pressure to act yet… just notice what comes up. We’re building something really special here. And I’m so glad you’re part of it. šŸ’›

🌟 Self Promotion Saturday Joy check… sharing is a gift.
We sometimes hold back. We don’t want to be ā€œtoo much.ā€ We don’t want to seem salesy. We tell ourselves… it’s not ready yet. But what if sharing isn’t about you? What if it’s a gift? A chance for someone to: • Discover something they need • Celebrate what you’re building • Be inspired to take their own next step That shift changes everything. Because now sharing isn’t self-promotion… It’s contribution. It’s connection. It’s generosity. So today, let’s reframe it. šŸ‘‡ Drop what you’re working on: • Your business • Your offer • Your content • Your idea • Your next step And don’t just post… šŸ‘‰ Celebrate someone šŸ‘‰ Leave a comment šŸ‘‰ Make an introduction Because when one person shares… We all get more to celebrate. ✨
