In this episode of Choosing Joy, Jodi Lynn Turpin talks about anger, what it may be revealing, and how we can begin to move through it with more awareness, compassion, and intention.Anger is not something to ignore or shame.

Jodi explores how anger can come from feeling hurt by behavior we would never choose ourselves, or from old wounds, learned responses, and past pain being stirred up again.This episode is a gentle invitation to pause and ask: Why am I feeling this? Through prayer, reflection, empathy, healthy boundaries, and new habits, Jodi shares encouragement for anyone wanting to break old emotional loops and return to joy with a softer and wiser heart.If anger has been showing up in your life lately, this conversation is a reminder that awareness is where change begins, and choosing differently is possible.Connect to Jodi:Sign up for Jodi's newsletter: https://www.jodilynnturpin.com/linkswww.jodilynnturpin.comwww.instagram.com/choosing.joy.podcastwww.instagram.com/jodilynnturpinwww.facebook.com/intuitivejodiOpen for 1:1 sessions, head over to the website to check out more!

In this episode, I share a sweet story from our recent stay at Leelanau Pines — where we were lucky enough to camp next to the kindest family. But this isn't just a story about friendly neighbors. It’s about how every family holds a deeper story, and how we all have the power to choose love, to grow, to change, and to create the family dynamic we truly desire. Whether by blood or by choice, the way we show up for each other matters. This one’s for the soft hearts, the cycle breakers, and anyone rewriting the story of what family can be.Connect to Jodi:Sign up for Jodi's newsletter: https://www.jodilynnturpin.com/linkswww.jodilynnturpin.comwww.instagram.com/choosing.joy.podcastwww.instagram.com/jodilynnturpinwww.facebook.com/intuitivejodiOpen for 1:1 sessions, head over to the website to check out more!Send us a text Support the show

In this episode, I share how I pray—and how it's changed over time. I talk about praying to handle life, to navigate change, and to grow into the version of yourself you’re becoming.

A gentle reminder that prayer is a conversation, and it always starts within.Connect to Jodi:Sign up for Jodi's newsletter: https://www.jodilynnturpin.com/linkswww.jodilynnturpin.comwww.instagram.com/choosing.joy.podcastwww.instagram.com/jodilynnturpinwww.facebook.com/intuitivejodiOpen for 1:1 sessions, head over to the website to check out more!Send us a text Support the show
