In this must-listen episode we sit down with Cherise Adjodha - a gifted writer and former UN program developer and World Bank consultant who has spent a lifetime catalyzing human connection and reimagining what it means to be human.
Cherise brings the kind of wisdom born from witnessing the world’s suffering yet choosing to radiate joy. She invites us to explore three powerful ideas:
Being before doing
Positive psychology and connection
Freedom from self-judgment and what it means to release the “good little girl” narrative and act from compassion instead of guilt.
And somewhere in the midst of it all, Cherise gifts us a phrase from her home in St. Lucia — one that became the heartbeat of this episode:
“I catch a glad.”
A reminder that joy doesn’t need a reason, and that being human — in all its mess and magic — is enough.
