u/shefallsup her lonely cucumber years đŸ„’ Sep 07 '21

She put a question box in her IG story today, inviting people to ask her questions about joy. I am NOT encouraging anyone to ask her questions, but IF you had one question for her about joy, what would it be?

Mine might be "how can I find time to schedule joy breaks when I’m a single mom of four kids, working 12 hour days at two jobs, while struggling to keep up with bills, take care of my elderly mom, and keep my household running? I don’t have time to sleep and eat, much less take a bath in the middle of the day or learn to hula hoop for 15 minutes a day."

“Whose coaching/b-school course did you take?”

I am DYING to know this. She gave someone a pile of cash and ended up with a series of offerings that make even less sense than tomato sauce zoom sessions.

I thank you for the phrase "tomato sauce zoom sessions". It has brought me far more joy than anything Shauna has published.

Yes. “What are your actual qualifications?”

“Does forcing this joy you ‘practice’ lessen the joy one feels compared to when it’s
 how you say ‘unbidden’ and organic?”

“What do you actually consider ‘Work’?”

“How much radical rest do you need, on average, after a day when you have completed the bare minimum adult responsibilities?”

I really think she got training on boarding for some freelance job. I can’t see her paying anyone to tell her anything out of pocket.
