Conversations With Corliss- A Real Leadership Podcast

What if joy isn't something you find... but something you choose?

In this inspiring episode of Conversations with Corliss, I sit down with bestselling author, speaker, and joy advocate Jessica Janzen, author of Bring the Joy, to explore one of the most life-changing mindset shifts you can make: joy is not something that happens to you—it's something you choose to bring.

Through deeply personal stories of heartbreak, resilience, gratitude, and hope, Jessica shares how life's greatest challenges became the foundation for a life filled with purpose, meaning, and joy. Together, we unpack practical strategies to help you shift your mindset, build emotional resilience, and intentionally create more happiness—regardless of your circumstances.

If you've been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, discouraged, or simply longing for more peace and fulfillment, this conversation will remind you that while you can't always control what happens to you, you can always choose how you show up.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• Why joy is a choice—not a feeling you have to wait for
• Practical ways to cultivate more gratitude and positivity every day
• How resilience is built through life's hardest moments
• The mindset shifts that help you move from surviving to truly living
• Why self-leadership begins with the choices you make each day
• How choosing joy can transform your relationships, purpose, and overall well-being

This is more than a conversation about happiness. It's an invitation to lead your life with greater intention, embrace gratitude, and discover the power you have to create more joy—starting today.

If you're ready to experience more joy, resilience, purpose, and personal growth, this episode is for you.
