We asked several people what brought them joy lately and shared their responses in a new segment, the Reel of Joy. The sound clips in the order of appearance are from Justine, Michael and Sarah. Our featured guest is Samar Al Ibrahim, medical device cybersecurity specialist with Intermountain Healthcare. Samar talks about a variety of hobbies she developed during the lockdown, from sewing masks, to wood carving, to gardening in her kitchen. She shares virtual dating advice and contemplates the importance of self-love. Check out @whatbringsyoujoypodcast on Instagram to see Samar's wood carving and Sarah's sketching. The instastories will also provide more info on the book mentioned in the episode, A Book That Takes Its Time: An Unhurried Adventure in Creative Mindfulness by Astrid van der Hulst and Irene Smit.
