Midlife Unfiltered: The Season Of Me

Joy. Do you feel joy in your day to day? Or is it an idea that you can’t quite wrap your fingers around to claim for yourself? Is it even what you think it is? Let’s find out. Welcome to this episode of Midlife Unfiltered - a podcast about unapologetically embracing the Season of Me. In this episode, join co hosts Anita McLachlan and Erica Webb as they chat with their guest, Anne Maree Wilshire about the unexpected realities of joy. You will hear:

> How joy can manifest differently in various stages of life.

> Anne Maree’s personal experience of grappling with the reality of joy

> The difference between joy and happiness
