Take a meander with me as I explore joy in the everyday. Why joy? Because joy is an antidote to fear and despair... both of which we see aplenty in the world today.Weekly episodes will follow a reliable cadence - you'll hear my thoughts on what's up the first Tuesday of each month; the "MwT: The PauseCast with Angie Arendt" will drop in week two where we explore the ingredients that make life joyful; week three is a meander with regular people about what makes life joyful; and finally I'll offer you a monthly book review of books that matter to me. Exploring joy in the everyday, that's what you'll hear... good stories that show-off humanity to our shining best; people living lives of meaning and how they got there. Please, join me!
