Finding Joy at the Ocean

I’ve been spending a few days at my summer home by the ocean, and this was last night’s sunset. Every time I’m here, I feel joyful—and that feeling matters more than we often realize.

Research shows that joy isn’t just a pleasant emotion; it’s a powerful driver of fulfillment, resilience, and performance.

Here are a few ways to invite more joy into your life and leadership:

• Build meaningful connections.
• Work in alignment with your values.
• Mix things up—variety sparks creativity.
• Disconnect (yes, even leaders need to unplug).
• Spend time in nature.

 

Joy isn’t frivolous. It’s protective. It sustains leaders through challenges and fuels our best work.

What’s one joyful practice that keeps you going?
