EP 66: How to Become Mentally Strong in a World Full of Stress

Life can be unpredictable, unfair, stressful, and sometimes overwhelming, but mental strength is something we can build every day. In this episode of “What’s Good with John & Joyce,” we talk about practical ways to become mentally stronger and protect your peace in a world full of challenges, and we share how we handled certain situations as well.  We discuss why accepting that life isn’t always fair can actually help you move forward, how to distance yourself from toxic people and environments, why focusing on solutions instead of problems changes your mindset, and simple habits that can help you become more resilient, hopeful, and emotionally grounded. If you’ve been feeling mentally drained, discouraged, or simply want to become stronger from the inside out, this conversation is filled with relatable insights and encouragement to help you keep going. 💪✨ This episode is sponsored by: thewoodwinds.com [http://thewoodwinds.com/] silviossauces.com [http://silviossauces.com/] drinkmoonshots.com/ [https://www.drinkmoonshots.com/] ascend.bank/ [https://ascend.bank/] toyourhealth360.com [https://www.toyourhealth360.com/] Find us on social media: instagram.com/whatsgoodwithjohn_joyce [https://www.instagram.com/whatsgoodwithjohn_joyce] facebook.com/profile.php?id=61561504850955 [https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61561504850955] tiktok.com/@whats.good734 [https://www.tiktok.com/@whats.good734] Find out more about us: whatsgoodwithjohnandjoyce.com [https://www.whatsgoodwithjohnandjoyce.com/] whatsgoodwithjohnandjoyce.transistor.fm [https://whatsgoodwithjohnandjoyce.transistor.fm/] Read about living abundantly: "Live Abundantly Now" book [https://rb.gy/ox1vbq] "Starving Your Fears" book [https://rb.gy/79jkd9] Get in touch with John & Joyce: linktr.ee/whatsgoodpodcast [https://linktr.ee/whatsgoodpodcast] johnjoycepodcast@gmail.com [johnjoycepodcast@gmail.com] This podcast is produced by: directlinemediaproductions.com/professional-podcast-production [https://www.directlinemediaproductions.com/professional-podcast-production]

EP 62: It's The Kindness Man!

We’re welcoming back Ken Engelman!  With a background in advertising and marketing, and a big heart for community, Ken began covering divisive political messages with tape and spray paint, replacing them with a reminder the world could always use more of. What started as a small act of positivity has grown into a movement inspiring people to pause, reflect, and choose kindness. Ken shares how a simple idea can ripple outward, encouraging others to take action and spread goodwill in their neighborhoods. It’s a conversation about creativity, community, and the powerful impact of one small message: Please Be Kind. 💛 This episode is sponsored by: thewoodwinds.com [http://thewoodwinds.com/] silviossauces.com [http://silviossauces.com/] drinkmoonshots.com/ [https://www.drinkmoonshots.com/] ascend.bank/ [https://ascend.bank/] toyourhealth360.com [https://www.toyourhealth360.com/] Find us on social media: instagram.com/whatsgoodwithjohn_joyce [https://www.instagram.com/whatsgoodwithjohn_joyce] facebook.com/profile.php?id=61561504850955 [https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61561504850955] tiktok.com/@whats.good734 [https://www.tiktok.com/@whats.good734] Find out more about us: whatsgoodwithjohnandjoyce.com [https://www.whatsgoodwithjohnandjoyce.com/] whatsgoodwithjohnandjoyce.transistor.fm [https://whatsgoodwithjohnandjoyce.transistor.fm/] Read about living abundantly: "Live Abundantly Now" book [https://rb.gy/ox1vbq] "Starving Your Fears" book [https://rb.gy/79jkd9] Get in touch with John & Joyce: linktr.ee/whatsgoodpodcast [https://linktr.ee/whatsgoodpodcast] johnjoycepodcast@gmail.com [johnjoycepodcast@gmail.com] This podcast is produced by: directlinemediaproductions.com/professional-podcast-production [https://www.directlinemediaproductions.com/professional-podcast-production]
