Welcome! To Finally Effing Happy. A podcast & community for kick-ass women living with chronic illness. I’m Shannon, Happiness Coach and Self-Care Strategist. I’ll share my story, happiness hacks, self-care strategies, and amazing fellow warrior women living with chronic illness.
Today’s episode introduces my story, my heart, and my journey to joy living with chronic illness. My illness wasn’t diagnosed until my early 40’s, so I spent much of my life not on my a-game. Nonetheless, I have found happiness using a combination of internal and external strategies; internal, mindset COMBINED WITH external, self-care strategies. I have built a self-care superstructure that allows me to consistently ‘practice happiness’ so joy is within reach even when my body is not feeling at it’s best. And I want that happiness for you too!
Today’s takeaways:
- Happiness is to be had, even if you live with a chronic condition. I am not my illness, and neither are you.
- There is a balance between acknowledging and honoring the chronic condition, and not letting it be the driver of every day.
- Happiness is welcoming all emotions and facing them head on. Happiness is not denial.
- Self-care is both internal mindset and external self-care.
- Don’t do it alone! Challenges are eased when shared and joy is doubled when done together.
