## Resource

In this episode of The Joy! A.A.C.T.™ Podcast, Dr. Lisa guides you into the Testing stage of the Loss Cycle — the moment you start living again. Not by jumping into romance, forcing healing, or pretending you’re “over it”… but by experimenting, exploring, and allowing curiosity to lead you forward. This stage isn’t about perfection. It’s about movement. Small ones. Brave ones. Honest ones. You’ll learn how to step back into your life with intention — whether that means updating your résumé, joining a new group, taking yourself to lunch, or yes, even creating a dating profile… but this time with boundaries, clarity, and self-respect at the center. Testing isn’t about replacing anyone. It’s about rediscovering you. If you’re ready to try — gently, slowly, intentionally — this episode will meet you right where you are.
