Somewhere along the path to becoming an adult, as we face mounting responsibilities, many of us lose touch of our natural, childlike ability to play. While it might require more intention as we age, learning to invite pockets of playfulness into everyday life – and to prioritize time for fun – offers many health benefits.
In today’s episode, I talk with Jocey Wiitanen. Jocey is host of
the Make Life podcast, a personal coach and founder of Backroads
Coaching. A big part of her mission is to help women to dream
bigger, take up space, claim their gifts and say HECK YES to living
their best lives.
Jocey shares her immigration story and her transformational journey
from pain to living with lots of playfulness. Additionally, we
learn about her perspective on how play and mental health go hand
in hand, and practical tips for inviting fun into our day-to-day
lives.
