Ep 114: What is Joyous Justice really?

The Joyous Justice Podcast

In our first official episode as the Joyous Justice Podcast, we take a moment to reflect on what the phrase “joyous justice” means–in both our lives and leadership. While the phrase itself might seem oxymoronic in a world where many assume that pursuing justice requires the justice-seeker to suffer, we know that joy and justice must be paired together. We articulate the benefit and beauty of a justice pursuit that aligns our healing with the healing of the world.
