Synopsis

Welcome to the podcast that's all about positivity! On each episode of The Joy Unicorns Show, we'll share the stories of people around the planet doing things to benefit their families, their schools, and their entire communities. How about some "good news" for a change? Each episode features stories, interviews, and even some uplifting music. About Joy Unicorns: After a brainstorm that sparked it, and a summer concert that really fueled the whole idea (thanks Jason Mraz), we wanted to develop our own way to spread positivity. The Joy Unicorns is a result, and through this platform, we plan on spreading happiness and hope in a world that desperately could use some. Through our programming and products, we just want to remind you about the good in the world, and that finding true joy is the greatest pleasure ever known. More info at JoyUnicorns.com
