About this listen
In this episode, Rusty and Erica challenge the cultural myth that happiness is something to be pursued or earned. Instead of chasing joy like it’s an elusive prize, they explore how true happiness emerges from presence, stillness, and letting go of outdated beliefs.
Through stories of personal growth, raw honesty, and humorous insights, they dismantle the pressure to constantly perform happiness and offer practical advice on how to anchor in the present moment. From embracing stillness to unlearning happiness myths, this episode encourages listeners to host joy rather than hustle for it.
Key Takeaways:
Stop chasing happiness—invite it by being present.
Joy doesn’t come from achievements or external validation—it’s already within you.
Letting go of outdated scripts and expectations opens space for true contentment.
Stillness isn’t boring—it’s where your soul catches up to your spirit.
Release the need for perfection, and embrace the wild, messy journey of becoming.
