Turn Up the Volume on Joy

USA Today bestselling author, professor, and joy enthusiast, SC Perot helps individuals rediscover joy, build deeper connections, and create lasting, meaningful impact.

We All Want to Live a Life Filled with Joy.

But too often, joy feels out of reach—buried under comparison, distraction, and the noise of modern life.

Social media has made comparison unavoidable, leaving many feeling stuck, unfulfilled, and blind to the joy they already have. It’s not that joy has disappeared; it’s that we’ve stopped paying attention to it. We have never been paying less attention to the mundane, to our own joy, and to the joy of others. Joy demands focus and a shift in perspective. When the usual sources no longer work, it’s time to look in new places. Communal joy, shared through connection, holds immense power. It’s like seeing the glow of lights from other houses when your own feels dark—a reminder that joy is always within reach, waiting for you to flip the breaker.

Reconnecting with joy can transform everything

It brings color back to life, turns gray into vibrant hues, and creates moments of meaning that were always there, just waiting to be noticed. Joy is here, ready to be rediscovered.
