“The first action to be taken is to pull ourselves together. If we are going to be destroyed by an atomic bomb, let that bomb, when it comes, find us doing sensible and human things -- praying, working, teaching, reading, listening to music, bathing the children, playing tennis, chatting to our friends over a pint and a game of darts -- not huddled together like frightened sheep and thinking about bombs.”
― C.S. Lewis
In this week's episode of The House of Joy, we dive deep into navigating life’s toughest challenges with grace, resilience, and faith.
Dr. Edie and her daughter Emme get real about the power of processing emotions, especially during those moments when it feels like life is falling apart.
From losing a home to walking through seasons of uncertainty, they share personal stories, heartfelt insights, and practical tips to help you embrace the hard stuff—without adding unnecessary suffering.
Discover why it’s essential to let yourself fully feel your emotions and how finding comfort in simple, everyday routines can be a game-changer.
