Joy vs Happiness

Joy vs Happiness

4/2/2019

I was talking today with a client about the difference between joy and happiness. There is a distinction- don't you think? I think happiness comes and goes. Depending on our circumstances we can feel really happy about something or really not! But, our joy is deeper than our circumstances. Our joy comes from a different part of our soul. Joy is more of an internal attitude we live by. Joy is connected to our character and how we live in the world. Joy is seen throughout our big picture perspective. It is our internal fixed filter we see life through. We can feel very unhappy about a current time in our life but if we tap into our joy it can overwhelm that fleeting sensation. Joy is an inside job and not externally dependent. I think our joy comes from a strong spiritual force within us. We were made to live in our joy. Let this idea sink in a little bit. Which side do you find yourself? If the answer isn't joy - how can you tap into this more sustaining way of thriving in life? Don't settle for less when you were made for more. More JOY!

Joy and happiness are essentially the same thing. In my opinion, we should not try to nitpick at every single thing in the world. If you spend your time thinking about the small difference between joy and happiness, then you will end up wasting your life. Instead of thinking about the differences between the two, then why not just experience it for yourself. Joy and happiness are emotions that you should feel, rather than conceptualizing what they mean in a literary standpoint.

Kelly helped to me eliminate noise and focus on making impactful change. Within several months of our first meeting I was promoted in my professional life and operating with a new set of positive habits in my personal life.

I started seeing Kelly in fall of 2016 on the east coast before she moved out west. We had a connection from the start, and I was thrilled to be able to reconnect years later through her newest venture Kelly Cunningham Coaching! She has a tremendously warm heart/presence which makes those tough conversations and working on bettering yourself much easier. She’ll be your life coach, cheerleader, and 110% will hold you accountable to being kind to yourself while reaching your goals and tackling life’s challenges.

Kelly saw me through an incredibly difficult time in my life and taught me skills I still carry with me today. She never gave up on me and I’m so thankful for that.

Kelly has walked along side me for many years through many life circumstances and transitions. When I think of our time together I consider it time spent with a close friend. She is always there to encourage me enthusiastically and equally to hold me accountable and confront me with truth, compassion, and love.

Kelly has been there for me through some of the best, but more importantly some of the worst, moments of my life and all of the ups and downs in between these past few years. She has always seen the best in me and consistently encourages me to see it too. She truly cares about her clients and genuinely wants the best for them. She has a way of challenging you to become your best self, while still making you feel fully supported and accepted exactly where you are. She is patient and non-judgmental. She has been my light when it felt like my life was crumbling around me at times these past few years. She has been a weekly constant in my ever-changing world. Being able to connect from across the country via Facetime for our sessions has been a true blessing in my life. She has shown me the importance of balance, self-care, helped me to understand myself more deeply, and consistently encourages me to trust myself more.
