Podcasts about when joy

When Joy, who immigrated to the U.S. from China, finds herself trapped in an abusive relationship, she makes the choice to walk away from the family she thought she always wanted — and rebuild the family she always thought was broken. This episode was made in partnership with Self Evident: a podcast that challenges the narratives about where we’re from, where we belong, and where we’re going — by telling Asian America’s stories.

In this episode of the Next Step Podcast, Conrad Gempf joins Justin Rossow to talk about Chapter 9: Joy to the World from the resource Light in the Darkness: A Hymn Journal for Advent & Christmas. After a brief introduction and an opening prayer, you'll hear Conrad and Justin read the selected Scripture 87. As part of the ensuing discussion, Justin will read the devotion "Nor Thorns Infest the Ground" on page 88. After we listen to the Brooke and Brenan arrangement of this chapter's featured hymn, Conrad and Justin will discuss the hymn text and the theology of Jesus' first Advent in light of His second Advent. Two recent blogs from The Next Step Community continue the theme of today's discussion: When Joy to the World Comes True, and Far as the Curse is Found.

When Joy’s fairytale romance crashes and burns on the eve of her 35th birthday, the TICK-TOCK of her biological clock pushes her into a series of romantic misadventures and provokes wild hallucinations. Pressures stack up against her, and just about everybody seems to have an opinion about what she should do with her dwindling egg count. Joy ends up at Dream Life Lab & Clinic where an angry mob battles to get inside to see an eccentric egg freezing doctor who offers women peace of mind in exchange for their life savings.

Joy Osmanski, the alluring, graceful and jovial actor, dancer and mother of three has established herself as one of Hollywood's hardest working entertainers with the upcoming release of her two highly anticipated television series. Starring alongside Amy Poehler, Ty Burrell, Riki Lindhome, and Rashida Jones in FOX's "Duncanville" (airing on Sundays @ 8:30pm ET/PT), as well as DC & The CW's "Stargirl" (premiering on DC's streaming service on Monday, May 18, and on Tuesday, May 19 for the CW), which cast includes Luke Wilson, Amy Smart, and Luke Wilson, we would love to arrange an interview with you and one of Hollywood's hardest working moms. Joy is available to discuss her new series, as well as her overall career. Airing during FOX's Animation Domination, "Duncanville" centers around the life of 'Duncan Harris' (Poehler) an average 15-year-old boy, who is always one step away from making a bad decision. Along with Duncan lives his mom 'Annie' (Poehler), a parking enforcement officer, who dreams of being a detective someday and always has to watch Duncan, his dad 'Jack; (Burrell), who tries to be a better father figure to Duncan than his father was to him, his sister Kimberly (Lindhome), who is a normal teenager going through normal teen-phases, and his other adopted sister Jing (Osmanski). 'Jing' is also known as the moral compass of the family at 5 years old. Joy will also be seen in the action-packed DC Universe & CW's "Stargirl" as the infamous villainess 'Paula Brooks,' aka 'Tigress.' Best known for her skills in hand-to-hand combat and extensive weapons background, 'Tigress' is one of DC Universe's deadliest non-superpower villains. CW's "Stargirl" tells the story of high school sophomore 'Courtney Whitmore,' who discovers a powerful cosmic staff. After learning that her stepfather Pat Dugan (Luke Wilson) used to be a hero sidekick, she becomes the inspiration for a new generation of superheroes. Born in South Korea, and brought to the United States when she was adopted at a young age by her American parents, Joy had a drive and appreciation for the arts from the age of 3 when she began ballet lessons in her hometown of Olympia, Washington. From the very beginning of school, Joy was moved up from kindergarten to first grade after a few weeks and would to be hyper-competitive academically throughout her entire school career. After taking multiple college courses her senior year of high school, Joy would continue on to university at Principia College and graduate within 3 years with a degree in creative writing and studio art. She would then begin her career as a graphic designer and moved to Boston. After a year on the east coast, Joy moved to San Francisco where she created her own graphic design company. Having continued to dance through both high school and college, Joy continued to work on her ballet and dance skills and would book professional gigs on the side. After seeing a notice for auditions for a local production of "Our Town," and missing her performing arts side, she auditioned for the play and was cast in the lead role. Following her performance, Joy auditioned and received her MFA from UC San Diego, one of the top three professional actor training programs in the country. After relocating to Los Angeles, with her husband Corey Brill, Joy has continued worked steadily in theater, television and film, booking roles in hit projects including FOX's "The Loop," Netflix's "Santa Clarita Diet," Freeform's "The Fosters, FIRED UP, and ALVIN AND THE CHIPMUNKS: THE SQUEAKQUEL, to name a few.

When Joy was 16-years old, she fell in love with Leslie. Back then, he smelled good. “He had a wonderful male musk smell,” she says. Dr. and Mrs. Leslie and Joy Milne were later married. Les became a consultant anesthetist and she was a nurse practitioner. Sixteen years later, his body odor changed – for the worse. He smelled off, overly musky and unpleasant. Joy even nudged him to wash more. Twelve years after that, he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. At their first support group meeting, Joy realized the other people with PD smelled just like Les. Bravely, Joy asked researcher Tilo Kunath why no one had researched the smell of Parkinson’s. Tilo was shocked. He had never heard anyone talk about an odor of the disease. Neither had anyone else. Six months after that encounter, a colleague told Tilo that many cancers have smells, which made him think Joy maybe on to something. Tilo teamed up with Perdita Barran, a professor of mass spectrometry at the University of Manchester, and started to test Joy’s super smeller. They discovered she was smelling sebum, an oily secretion on everyone’s skin that is over-produced in people with Parkinson’s disease. Next, they focused on the molecules within the sebum. “We found, if we compared the samples from people with Parkinson’s with the people without, there were significant differences.” Barren says they found 17 compounds that were different, “Of those, four were significantly different and they always varied in the same way.” Barren and Kunath used that information to create a model which allows them to test anyone’s sebum at any time and predict, with 90% accuracy, if that person has Parkinson’s. The novelty of “The woman who smells Parkinson’s” initially brought ridicule and doubt from others in the scientific community, but as more and more research is being conducted, supporters are coming out of the closet. Joy feels some vindication, but knows there’s more work to be done on convincing the medical community that diseases have distinct odors. “How do elephants in a tribe know an elephant is ill and they protect it? How does a wolf know who is in the pack and is ill? Animals smell when they are ill. Sharks do as well. They have a super sense of smell. We are sentient beings. So why are we not accepting of it?” There currently are no biological tests or measurable indicators for Parkinson’s disease. Diagnosis of PD is a subjective call by a neurologist based on medical history, symptoms, a physical examination and neurological tests. It is imperfect at best. The research around the smell of Parkinson’s is an exciting and promising approach to finding that elusive biomarker. Additionally, testing sebum levels is quick, easy, cheap and painless making it a great option for monitoring disease progression and medication effectiveness, especially for people in rural areas who rarely see their neurologist.

Today I am talking to Joy Bender with Compass. A top luxury real estate agent and co-founder of her team Aumann Bender & Associates. When Joy started her business in San Diego, one of the most competitive and primer luxury markets in the country, she didn’t know a single soul. Most impressive about her luxury real estate business today, is that she built it they way the everyone says building a real estate business is not possible: she did it with digital marketing. Today, Joy is San Diego’s premiere luxury real estate digital marketing expert. Until 2017, 100% of Joy’s business, all luxury clients came through her digital marketing. She has one page ranking on Google for Sand Diego luxury real estate search inquires and is a micro-influencer on Instagram with over 15k followers, and that’s just to name a couple. Among her many accomplishments, she has also been named in The Wall Street Journal as a California Top Real Estate Agent. Today Joy talks to me about how to do the impossible: how to break into luxury real estate digitally.

Revitalization Work. With conscious growth. In a bank vault. Welcome to Episode 94 and my conversation with Chef Joy Crump of FoodE and Mercantile in Fredericksburg. I was immediately taken with Joy when I met her during the Fire, Flour, Fork Women in Food panel where her thoughtfulness on the topic of running a kitchen stayed with me for hours afterward. We had this conversation inside FoodE, a converted bank building. In the vault of all places, which has excellent acoustics! Joy and her business partners were very conscious about keeping the original bones intact, using what was in place, rather than gutting everything and starting from scratch, hiring craftsmen to painstakingly restore every part and piece. Was there pushback from the community when she decided to renovate? How did her knowledgeable partner make the renovation process easier because of his background? How was this overhaul financed? If you're a woman, and even if you're not, Joy's story will CURL YOU HAIR. Make you angry. Galvanize you to take action on this International Women's Day. I'm still doing a facepalm. "You want to find that common ground where you're celebrating what has past and also giving new life to what's coming ahead. That's what preservation is." "We did so many things to keep the heart and spirit of the building while still celebrating it, and making it functional so that people can continue to enjoy it. I'm so proud to be in here. To be a tenant, to be a part owner, to have witnessed the process." Joy describes Fredericksburg as a community "Tumbling Forward". What does she mean by that? We discuss this in depth, especially since I feel Charlottesville is experiencing something similar. When Joy first started FoodE, all she knew was that she wanted to cook good food. The concept developed over time and only after the third restaurant opened, a brewpub called Six Bears And A Goat which recently opened in Stafford. As she states, once you have a group of establishments it behooves you to have some sort of uniform concept. Like Edacious, the one word she and her partners Beth Black and Jeremy Harrison kept coming back to was community. Places where anyone is welcome. Where folks can drop by anytime. "We want you to come in wearing jeans and flip-flops. We want it to feel like it's a place where you can walk by on Wednesday and happen to come in and get a great meal, not that you have to make reservations a month ahead...Fredericksburg has driven who we are and what our brand is and now we're trying to catch up and articulate it in other places we want to build." To build that customer relationship, Joy and her partners listened closely to concerns, revamping the menu, adding dishes people requested, removing others, and shaping the space according to the customer's needs. This promotes loyalty and customers who choose to spend their dollar at FoodE and Mercantile regularly. Because as she states so well, you don't pay the bills simply by having a good graduation weekend or a ton of weddings. The menu at FoodE is a fantastic mixture of "Naughty Food" (Joy's term) and healthy dishes, food that is clean. So after enjoying a melty pimento toast for lunch you can follow it up with a delicious winter greens salad and leave feeling sated and satisfied. "These are the best ingredients, prepared by the best chefs that we can afford at the most affordable price that we can offer. It's our version of gourmet. It's care and love for the ingredients." "I love fried chicken...(but) if you feel like when you walk out of here that you're SO FULL then you're probably not going to come back for a week or two until you're ready to have that feeling again...We were built on the guest who came literally two or three times a week. If a guest is going to come two or three times a week a) your menu has to change b) they've got to feel good when they stand up from the table and c) you can't overserve them...our portions are controlled...I'd rather see you twice at $10 a pop than once for $30." "My goal is to make you remember something and feel something different at the same time. I love chicken skins, but I've never had them on top of salad before. It should bring a memory and it should also be a new experience. That's what I try to do with literally every single dish. Elevate it by what you remember." Why is it important for Joy to be conscious about creating a healthy, nurturing, family environment in her kitchen? Why does being a social entrepreneur not only help give back but also revitalize an entire community, building relationships not only with customers but other business owners? Why is Whole Food Utilization important? How does she walk the delicate line between supporting local farmers and meeting her bottom line while keeping customers happy? How did Joy's Atlanta background inform her experience? Did her appearance on Top Chef Season 12 inform her cooking? We cover it all in this episode. Joy's energy and enthusiasm and thoughtfulness made me want to work with her on the regular. So well spoken. And her food? Phenomenal. Day trips to Fredericksburg are going to be a regular part of the rotation. I'll probably listen to this episode on the way there. Enjoy! Happy International Women's Day!
