Turning Your FOMO to JOMO

Season 2, Ep. 37

Are you ready to swap the fear of missing out for the joy of missing out? This Sunday Session we are getting real about JOMO—the joy of missing out—and how it can transform your life.


Paula takes us on a deep dive into the anxiety-inducing world of FOMO, breaking down why we feel compelled to stay connected and attend every event, only to scroll through social media feeling left out. But it doesn't have to be this way! She shares her personal journey from FOMO to JOMO, offering actionable insights on how to embrace solitude, prioritize self-care, and find contentment in the present moment.


With five empowering strategies, Paula guides us through trusting our gut, saying "no" with confidence, and protecting our peace. Whether it's skipping the Met Gala after-parties or simply enjoying a quiet night in, this episode is your permission slip to prioritize your well-being and live life at your own pace.


So if you're tired of the constant comparison and ready to relish in the beauty of your own life, hit play and let Paula lead you to a place where the world truly is your oyster—and missing out is the pearl of great price.
