Episode 112: "What Are You Looking Forward To?"
What if one of the simplest ways to increase resilience, optimism, and emotional energy isn’t a massive life change — but intentionally putting something on your calendar?
In this episode of Staying Power, Ashley and JD explore the psychology and neuroscience of anticipation — why having something to look forward to improves mood, reduces stress, and increases motivation. They discuss how intentionally planning experiences (not just waiting for holidays) can help you live more aligned with your values, and why even small events — a dinner, a solo excursion, a game night — can profoundly shift your emotional baseline.
Because joy doesn’t just happen. It can be scheduled.
