We’re living in a time that can feel heavy—between constant connectivity, global challenges, and the pressure to keep up, joy can start to feel like something we have to work for. In this episode, Sasha explores the difference between happiness and joy—and why actively choosing joy might be one of the most powerful things we can do for ourselves and others.
Enter Joel Eggimann: former professional parkour athlete, adventurer, and creator of The Bucket List Planner. Joel has turned a simple idea—writing down what you want to experience before you die—into a movement that helps people stop postponing what matters most.
From flipping between 200-meter-high rock spires in Norway to cuddling alpacas, Joel’s journey is equal parts daring and deeply human. But at the heart of it all is a simple truth: joy is not accidental—it’s intentional.
In this conversation, Sasha and Joel dive into how to reconnect with what lights you up, why sharing your dreams matters, and how even the smallest, silliest goals can lead to a richer, more meaningful life.
