201: If I Worked with Joy: A Deep Dive into 'Inside Out 2'

In this episode, I’m having some fun with the movie "Inside Out 2" and talking about this movie as if Joy, the lead character, were my client! It would be an understatement to say that Joy is a little uncomfortable with the other emotions present in Riley’s head, and this isn’t unlike many of us who struggle with acknowledging the full range of emotions we experience as humans. So…on this episode I’m delving into the complexities of emotions through the lens of Joy. We discuss Joy's unique role and experiences within Riley's emotional switchboard and how she navigates the challenges of maintaining happiness while acknowledging the full spectrum of emotions. We also address the impact of perfectionism and overwork on Joy's well-being, offering strategies for managing this desire to pursue joy and embracing a more balanced approach to emotional support.   This is a fun conversation and applicable to everyone - even if joy isn’t your default emotion. If you tend to get a little uncomfortable with certain emotions, you’ll definitely get something from this episode.   Episode Links: She Doesn’t Settle Kelly’s Website Kelly on Instagram Email - support@kellytravis.net
