Joy doesn’t just arrive—it takes work.
This week on Luma & Bloom, Nic and Kate welcome Jessica Janzen, a motivational speaker and author who believes that joy is the fuel for forward momentum and resilience.
Jessica shares practical tools for shifting your mindset, managing grief with grace, and elevating your life by elevating your health. She reminds us that we don’t have to do it alone—and that true healing begins when we let ourselves be vulnerable, honest, and open to help.
Tune in to discover how to cultivate powerful thoughts that serve you, live intentionally, and embrace the messy, beautiful work of joy.

Hey, it's Nic, cohost at Luma & Bloom! The Joy Smith Foundation transformed my life. From a "Luma Moment" revelation to advocating against human trafficking, I've found family among warriors. Outside, I dive into fashion, beauty, and cherish the chaos of being a wife and mom for a decade!
Podcaster
