0:00Hey, it's your friend Mel, and welcome to the Mel Robbins podcast.
0:08I am so excited about the conversation today because we're going to talk about how you can feel like yourself again.
0:13Get your spark back and bring more joy into your life, even if things are really hard right now.
0:20And we're going to do it with this extraordinary woman.
0:22Her name is Dr.
0:23Kelly McDonagle.
0:24I have been trying to get her on the podcast for years.
0:27She's one of the world's leading experts in stress, resilience, joy.
0:31She's been at Stanford University as a psychologist and lecturer for over 20 years.
0:37And what she's going to teach you today, it is simple.
0:39It's backed by science.
0:41She has such an important message to share with you.
0:44You can enjoy your life right now.
0:47For real.
0:48She wants you to know that a good life isn't perfect.
0:51And joy is how you navigate those moments in between periods that are challenging and periods that are amazing.
0:59Joy is how you have a day that has a sunrise and a funeral.
