Ever felt that little nudge to try something fun and new—
✨ a dance class
✨ a creative hobby
✨ meeting new friends
or finally doing that thing you’ve talked about for months…
…and then somehow… it still doesn’t happen?
Ugh.
Same.
And it’s not your fault.
In this week’s episode, I break down why your brain makes trying something new so ridiculously hard, even when your spirit knows it will ignite your joy, energy, spark, and vibrancy.
I share two evidence-based moves from positive psychology that will actually help you follow through and make your new fun finally happen.
This episode is part science, part story, part permission slip… and part hilarious confession as I share the two new things I secretly tried (including a medium and a rock/pop choir… yes, really 🤘🎤).
Your brain is wired for comfort and predictability—but also wired to love novelty. So why the conflict? I explain the psychology behind the “I want to, but I just don’t” phenomenon that keeps so many adults stuck.
Spoiler:
🔹 Microdose Your Fun
🔹 Tell No One
These two strategies calm your nervous system, bypass perfection pressure, reduce fear, and create the spark of momentum you need.
I share the real stories—raw, honest, joyful:
🌟 My private visit to a modern medium (and what she told me about the Fun Movement)
🌟 My secret audition for a rock/pop singing group (and what it felt like to sing with 50 strangers at full volume)
You judge yourself for “not following through”
You want to feel more alive, energized, and vibrant
You’re ready to try something new… but want support to actually do it
Pick one thing you’ve always wanted to try.
Tell no one.
Do one micro-action toward it.
Then see what happens.
And when you’ve done it?
