Moments of Joy

Reflections, Rituals, and the Journey Toward Joy

Becoming the Woman I Dreamed Of

I had a memory come back to me this morning.

As a little girl, I used to dream of putting on roller skating performances with my friends and charging our neighbors to come watch. I didn’t know anything about business or money—I just knew that I wanted to create something joyful and be supported for it. I wanted to be the generator of my own income, doing something that felt like me.

​That desire never left.
For years, I thought I had to find “the thing” that would finally unlock that dream. I went to school for interior design. I trained in House-Coaching, blending the psychology of home with beauty and transformation. I watched people light up when I spoke about those things… and yet, when I tried to turn them into a business, it felt off. Like I was trying to squeeze myself into a mold I didn’t quite fit.

Now, with Morning Joy, something feels different.

I’m not trying to force it.

I’m not chasing.

I’m listening.

I’m learning to stop “wanting” and instead live as the woman I’ve always dreamed of being.

She creates from joy, not pressure.

She trusts her timing.

She honors the pace of her soul.

She doesn’t have it all figured out—but she knows she’s on the way.

If you’re in a space of becoming, I just want to say: you’re not behind. You’re blossoming. Let yourself trust the unfolding.

You’re allowed to outgrow old dreams. You’re allowed to rewrite your path.

You’re allowed to take the scenic route.

Because sometimes, the little girl on roller skates still knows best.

What a beautiful message Jody. I think looking back to what we liked as a young person can be revelatory.
