We spend a lot of time talking about lifespan. And increasingly, we talk about healthspan. But what about joy span? What if one of the most important measures of a life is how much joy we actually experience while we're living it? In this episode, I explore the difference between happiness and joy, introduce the concept of joyspan, and share practical ways to become more aware of the joy that already exists around you. Joy isn't frivolous. It isn't selfish. And it certainly isn't something to postpone until everything else is handled. Joy is part of what makes a life worth living. Want everything in one place?
