What Brings You Joy?

Reflecting on what brings you joy and why it is important
“What brings me joy”? This question is crucial in a world that seems to demand more than we can give. It’s closely tied to self-compassion, a core component of Escentia’s 6Cs framework. We believe that understanding what brings us joy is essential for living and leading with intention.

Today, more than ever, it’s crucial to be clear and courageous in setting boundaries to protect our energy levels. Our energy is our most valuable resource, yet it’s often overlooked. Great leaders, in life and work, recognise that sustainability must be prioritised in order to be effective and supportive for ourselves, our teams and our loved ones. This means engaging in activities that bring us joy – allowing time to unplug, reflect, and recharge.
To support you, we’ve developed the ‘Taking Care of You’ focus plan. This resource offers exercises to help you identify what truly brings you joy and encourages accountability in committing to these activities. Download the plan today.
