Welcome back to Chasing Joy! After a 20-month hiatus, Spencer, Bryan, and Wayne—the original “band” behind the podcast—reunite for a raw and honest conversation about what it really means to pursue happiness in a world that seems to only get more complicated. In this episode, they reflect on life’s unpredictable twists, changing definitions of joy, and the tools they’ve gathered (and sometimes lost) along the way.
Spencer opens up about feeling like he’s “relapsed” in his journey of chasing joy, despite his best efforts, gratitude practices, and support systems. Together, the group explores the idea that joy isn’t a fixed destination but a continuous, ever-evolving journey—one that often requires redefining your measuring stick for happiness, building new boundaries, and learning how to surf life’s waves rather than control them.
Bryan and Wayne share insights on balance, boundaries, and the importance of community, while also highlighting how external pressures—from personal finances to world events—can dramatically shift our approaches to joy and contentment. The conversation is filled with metaphors (from music to surfing), humor, and vulnerability. Whether you’re navigating your own challenging season or simply looking to reconnect with what truly matters, this episode is a reminder that chasing joy is messy, ongoing, and, above all, a collective experience.
Tune in for practical wisdom, genuine laughs, and heartfelt moments as the Chasing Joy crew dives back in and invites you to join the journey.
