Sometimes the bravest thing you can do is tell the truth—and trust what happens next.There comes a moment when your soul refuses to stay quiet. For Sharron Ragan, that moment arrived through loss, disruption, and a powerful internal awakening. Sharron joins Lorelei for a JOYfilled, sacred conversation on reinvention—where truth becomes the turning point.In this deeply real conversation, Lorelei and Sharron explore the in-between space: where the old is gone, the new is not yet fully formed, and faith becomes your greatest ally.Sharron mirrors this with her own journey—healing self-judgment, finding compassion for her past, and learning to speak her truth without apology. When she chose honesty, it set off a chain reaction. People left. Roles shifted. And space was created for something far more aligned to emerge.Lorelei reveals the astrological force of Pluto, the planet of transformation, healing and regeneration squaring Sharron's Sun. This is a sacred initiation calling her to release outdated roles, reclaim her voice, and lead from truth, as she opens the door to her work with intuitive gifts, her developing documentary series, and her mission to help others dissolve the imposter syndrome.What if JOY wasn't about becoming perfect… but about becoming whole?Lorelei shares her signature perspective: true fulfillment comes when we stop rejecting parts of ourselves and start embracing the full spectrum of who we are. This is a JOY Rules episode at its core: a reminder that when you stop resisting who you are, JOY naturally rises.Together, Lorelei and Sharron create a space where growth isn't about fixing—it's about allowing.If you feel like you're outgrowing your current life, this episode will help you trust the process of becoming.This is the episode for anyone standing on the edge of change—wondering if the leap will be worth it.It will.

What makes someone a JOY Rules guest? Not fame. Not a resume. Aliveness. In this behind-the-curtain-meets-heart-to-heart episode, Lorelei shares her guest criteria—people who are “up to something” because of their inner knowing—and Aileen Deaton embodies it beautifully.Meet Aileen Deaton—86, a firecracker with a message, and here to lovingly roast the cultural myth of “inevitable decline.” Aileen is not here for “act your age.” She's here for act your aliveness. In this episode, she and Lorelei talk about the cultural trance that says aging equals decline—and how Aileen wants to help people wake up from it.Aging isn't a sentence. With Gemini sparkle and wit, plus a big Uranus energy, she's rewriting the rules—one laugh (and one brave choice) at a time. with her quick mind, her tender truth, and her fierce commitment to ageless living.In this JOY Rules episode, Lorelei and Aileen explore what happens when a Gemini Sun gets a cosmic knock at the door—Uranus approaching her Sun—and the invitation is clear: get freer, get louder, get more YOU.This episode of JOY Rules is a cosmic wake-up call for your voice and your freedom. Aileen (86!) brings Gemini wit, big heart, and a no-nonsense take on living agelessly—starting right now.What if your next chapter isn't about “settling down,” but breaking open—in the best way? Aileen shares how life's plot twists shaped her resilience (including a season of profound uncertainty), how she discovered astrology through an unexpected chapter of her working life, and why she's passionate about helping others untangle the “programming” that says getting older means getting smaller.  Together. Lorelei and Aileen weave astrology, courage, decluttering-as-liberation, and the surprisingly radical practice of letting yourself be supported, and why receiving help might be the most rebellious thing we do.Aileen's story holds both grit and glow: the moments that shaped her strength, the ways she reclaimed her breath and her voice, and her desire to help others stop rehearsing decline.   Warning: You may finish this episode wanting to clear a closet, call a friend, and begin again—JOYfully.This episode is part cosmic forecast, part heart-talk, and fully a permission slip to keep evolving—no matter your age.

This episode of JOY Rules™ is a Venus-day love ceremony where we remember: JOY isn't optional—JOY Rules.  The tables are turned and I'm the guest—sharing a warm, wise, JOY-charged conversation with Terra Bundance, who previously visited the show for a heart-opening episode about authenticity and choosing JOY moment by moment. Why “Double Venus”? Because the cosmos is winking at us. I'm a Libra Sun with a Taurus Moon, and Terra is a Taurus Sun with a Libra Moon—a mirrored pairing of Venus wisdom, beauty, values, and soulful truth. And since JOY Rules™ invites us to reclaim JOY as essential, what better day than Friday—Venus Day—to talk about relationships as sacred curriculum, Divine appointments, and Holy Encounters?  With all our combined Venus energy., this is  a subject near and dear to our hearts.Together we explore my 7 Relationship Truths—the ones I've lived, earned, cried through, danced through, and ultimately used to reclaim JOY (even 6 marriages?) Every relationship is a sacred gift—beginning with the one with you. Happy, fulfilling, abundant relationships are ONLY possible when you become your own best friend, parent, and partner. Relationships are mirrors.  Everyone is a reflection of you...showing you your light and your lessons. You “script” your relationships… and ONLY you can rewrite the story. Your greatest challengers are your greatest teachers, your champions, and your healing angels. Relationships  never die or end; they simply change form. Astrology helps reveal who arrives, when, and why—for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. If you're ready to let love in ALL your relationships be lighter, truer, and more JOYful—this episode is your invitation to come home to your heart. 

In this deeply sacred and soul‑stirring episode of JOY RULES, Lorelei is joined by Christie Del Vesco—writer, photographer, Universalist minister, and devoted listener of God's nudges—for a conversation that softens the nervous system while expanding the heart.Christie's life and work are devoted to one radical remembering: Everyone is the face of God—and safety is our birthright.In this powerful JOY RULES conversation, Christie shares how she moved from a life shaped by trauma into one anchored in embodied safety and a conscious devotion to God—a transformation catalyzed by a solo road trip that changed everything.This 11,800‑mile road trip became a holy conversation with God, one that carried her from chronic despair into a lived experience of safety, creativity, and daring JOY.  Christie chronicles this pilgrimage in her book, A Road Trip with God: 11,800 Miles from Hoping to Die to Daring to Live.This wasn't a journey of escape—it was a journey of embodied safety, where Christie consciously gave her life to God and allowed life to live her. Along the road, she experienced a profound shift: releasing a trauma‑based lens and learning to meet herself, others, and the world through safety, devotion, and self‑trust. In this luminous episode, Lorelei and Christie explore:What it means to live as if everyone is the face of God: How God shows up everywhereWhy shifting from a trauma to a safety lens changes EVERYTHINGWhat embodied safety actually feels like in real lifeIf you're ready to stop just surviving and start inhabiting your aliveness, this conversation will meet you exactly where you are.This is an episode to listen to slowly. Let it land in your body. Let it re-teach you how to breathe.

What if manifestation isn't about effort, vision boards, or force—but about removing what's in the way? In this soul-stirring episode of JOY Rules, Lorelei is joined by Bob Lancer—teacher, guide, and creator of The New Wisdom of Joy—for a conversation that gently dismantles the myth of striving. Bob shares how years of emotional suffering, codependency, and anger ultimately led him to develop a simple, compassionate method for clearing resistance to JOY. Sometimes life becomes so aligned, so spacious, so kind that there's a quality of peace that feels almost otherworldly. Bob speaks candidly about the mysterious ease that entered his life once he stepped out of striving and into trust. His reflection—“Sometimes I think I must have died and woken up in heaven”—isn't hyperbole, but a sacred recognition of what life can feel like when we're in harmony with our true nature. Letting go of fear, inadequacy, and self‑judgment opened the door to natural abundance, emotional healing, and the healthiest relationship of his life.

Worship pastor Robbert van den Bos deelt met ons hoe het verlies van onze passie voor God kan leiden tot het maken van beslissingen waar we later spijt van krijgen, net zoals David en Esau dit deden. Maar dat is niet het einde! Door te focussen op de vreugde van onze redding ontvangen we kracht en wordt deze passie opnieuw aangewakkerd.
