Does joy feel out of reach—too naïve, indulgent, or just too hard? You’re not alone. In this 5-day plan inspired by Undaunted Joy by Shemaiah Gonzalez, discover how joy isn’t a luxury, but a way of life rooted in faith. Through honest reflections and everyday moments—like folding laundry or sipping coffee—you’ll begin to see joy as something sacred and defiant. Whether in shadow or sunlight, this plan invites you to see with fresh eyes and uncover joy in the mundane and the magnificent.
