MOTM #722: Joy as an Opportunity

Monday, June 22nd, 2026

Life is hard enough for so many of us, so if you have any joy to spare, share it. There’s a quote I love, and you’ve probably seen me say it before, that says, “when you have more than you need, build a longer table not a higher fence.” It’s foundational to everything I aim to create in my life and business and it’s how we help each other survive in this time of late-stage capitalism. When life gets tough, you can always step away for a time. But when life is good? Share it.

Let’s chat.

Welcome to Maestro on the Mic, a podcast that helps online business owners find their passion, deepen their impact, and build a life that they love. I'm your host, Dr. Shanté Cofield, aka The Movement Maestro, and I’m stoked to have you here. I hope this podcast inspires you to make moves and do the thing. Action is the answer.

In This Episode You'll Hear:

  • Working through grief and sadness
  • Joy as an opportunity
  • Put out the energy you want to be seeing
  • The benefit (and privilege) of taking a step back
