Diane Shiffer, author of The Smallest of Joys, shares how she finds joy through life's difficulties. She explains that pain and beauty coexist without canceling each other out, and introduces practical tools like a 'sit and stare' practice and the freedom of accepting a seven-out-of-ten life. The conversation covers how to notice small moments, choose self-kindness over self-criticism, and shift attention toward beauty to foster resilience.
