The JOY of LIVING — Education
The JOY of LIVING

Barry Shore isn’t just a podcast host — he’s the Ambassador of Joy, and this show is a masterclass in choosing Joy no matter what life throws at You. On September 17, 2004, Barry went from happy, healthy, and whole to fully paralyzed overnight — struck by Guillain-Barré Syndrome, a rare neurological disease. What followed was 144 days across three hospitals, two years in a hospital bed at home, and four years in a wheelchair. Today, Barry gets around with the help of a 6.5-foot walking wand, still needs assistance 12 hours a day, and yet swims two miles a day, six days a week. That journey from devastation to Joy is the heartbeat of everything Barry teaches.

Each episode, Barry sits down with entrepreneurs, motivational speakers, business leaders, athletes, and non-profit ambassadors — inspiring people with stories that prove Joy and Happiness show up everywhere, in business, education, finance, leadership, and beyond. Guests bring their own hard-won wisdom to the table, and Barry weaves it together with his signature frameworks — the 3 Fundamentals, the 11 Strategies, and his OH SHIFT! method — to give You practical, actionable tools for reclaiming Your happiness, no matter Your circumstances or field.

Whether You’re building a business, leading a team, chasing a goal, or just searching for more Joy in Your everyday life, this podcast delivers inspiration rooted in real experience, not theory. Subscribe to THE JOY OF LIVING PODCAST and start Your own JOY of Living journey today.

Designing Your Life Sep 27, 2022

The meaning of life is something that each person must discover for themselves. Life is an experience that we can't put into words. It's something that we have to feel for ourselves.

Today we have a special guest in the form of Michael Gardon, who used to be a derivatives trader. He switched from being a type A personality to living a more joyous existence, and he'll tell you all about it today.

A Quest to Finding Your True Self Sep 13, 2022

Show notes

Life is so beautiful but do we all recognize it? The great philosopher Alan Watts once said that the more human being gets something the more vulnerable it becomes. And that is very true in life. We all want the best but do we truly appreciate it when we have it? The answer, most of the time, is no. We are always chasing after something, whether it is materialistic possessions or intangible things like love and happiness. We quickly get used to what we obtain and desire more once we obtain it. It’s a never-ending cycle that only leads to misery and dissatisfaction. Today, we have a very lovely guest who, despite her stunning looks, discovered that physical attractiveness was insufficient in order for her to establish meaningful relationships. So she started on a journey to build the most important relationship of all, the relationship with herself. Milana Vayntrub is an actress, comedian, and activist who radiates happiness and love. If you pay attention to what she’s saying, your life will be completely altered.

Metaphysical Mysteries Aug 30, 2022

You’ll learn about several fascinating mysteries in today’s episode, from what a ghost is to how to conduct a ghost hunt to who we truly are.

We hope that after you listen this episode, nothing in YOUR life will ever be the same.

Stress Management with Jim Poole Aug 24, 2022

Show notes

What is stress? Stress is the body's response to any demand. It may be caused by both good and bad experiences. During times of stress, the body releases hormones that prepare us to either "fight" or "flee". This is known as the fight-or-flight response. While the immediate reaction to stress may be beneficial, prolonged or chronic stress can have serious effects on our physical and mental health. Today, we're chatting with Jim Poole, a well-known figure in the field of stress management. It's wonderful to be able to meet two prominent figures in the field of stress management, and our host Barry Shore is a world class figure in this field. We're discussing a topic that is so critical to our health and wellbeing, and it's great to be able to have this conversation. I hope this podcast will be of benefit to you, and please share it with your friends if you think they would find it helpful.

Stress Free Guide to Entrepreneurship Aug 03, 2022

Show notes

There are infinite possibilities for business, and we constantly stress that the purpose of business is to serve others rather than make money. The majority of people mix up business and money, which is incorrect. We believe you serve others and money comes as a by-product. We also think that making money should be the number one priority for any business. However, we cannot deny that there are businesses out there which put others before profits, and they seem to be doing just fine and even better. Today, we have Tyler Ornstein of Tyler’s Coffees on our show. Tyler (being a coffee lover himself) was inspired by others who were unable to consume coffee because of doctor prescriptions; this motivated him to discover a solution that would end up as “Tyler’s Coffees.” Tyler is a self-made entrepreneur who has earned a lot of money by doing what he loves. In this podcast, Tyler and our show host, Barry Shore Mental Health Expert, discuss how he may continue to develop his business and become what he is today. If you’re an entrepreneur or want to be one, this episode is for YOU. Are YOU ready to live a stress free life?

Faith and Hope With Philosopher Noah benShea Jul 20, 2022

Show notes

Do you think you have the faith to walk on water? Faith is often thought of in terms of religion, but it really is so much more. Faith is having confidence or trust in someone or something. When we have faith in ourselves, we are confident that we can achieve our goals. Faith is also believing in something that we cannot see. This could be a higher power, an unseen force, or the idea that everything happens for a reason. And with the faith comes hope. Hope is an optimistic attitude that things will work out, even when the odds seem against us. Faith and hope go hand in hand. Today we’ve a special guest, Noah benShea is one of the most renowned and beloved poets-philosophers in North America. He has been awarded the Pulitzer Prize, as well as other prestigious accolades. And as our mental health activist Barry Shore says, “Noah’s work has the ability to change lives.”
