In this eye-opening episode, we explore the powerful psychology of framing—the way we interpret and give meaning to the facts of our lives. You’ll learn why the brain is hardwired to seek stories over facts, how politicians and marketers use this bias to influence us, and most importantly, how you can harness it to your own benefit.

We’ll unpack real-life examples and give you practical tools to shift your inner narrative. Because once you understand that you can choose your frame, you gain the power to change everything—from how you see challenges to how you experience joy.

✨ While change is great, and often necessary, sometimes it's not about changing your circumstances to feel better—it's about changing how you see them.

Caring for others—whether in your personal or professional life—can be deeply fulfilling, but it also comes with its challenges. The weight of constant caregiving can leave even the most dedicated among us feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and burned out. Too often, societal and cultural norms reinforce the idea that sacrificing ourselves is the price of being a “good” caregiver.

But here’s the truth: you cannot pour from an empty cup. You deserve to care for others without losing yourself in the process.

Welcome to The JoyfulRx podcast—your weekly dose of inspiration, tools, and strategies to rediscover your inner joy. Hosted by Dr. Michelle Welch, a practicing physician, mother, children’s author, entrepreneur, and certified coach, this podcast is designed specifically for caregivers who are ready to stop surviving and start thriving.

Each week, Dr. Michelle dives into topics that matter most to caregivers, offering practical steps and actionable insights to help you reclaim your joy, build resilience, and create a life where you can serve others from your overflow, not your reserves.

Today I want to share something that changed the entire trajectory of my life—and it wasn’t a new job, a move, or a major milestone.

It was… my morning.

I know. That might sound too simple. But when you’re overwhelmed, when you’re in survival mode, and everyone else’s needs seem to matter more than your own—how you begin your day can quietly shape your entire life.

So in today’s episode, I’m going to introduce you to two moms.

Sarah, and Jasmine. You’ll see yourself in them.

I’ll also share how I moved from being a Sarah to becoming my own version of Jasmine… and how you can too.

Let’s dive in.
