The Rearview Mirror is Small For a Reason

What if the size of your rearview mirror is a reminder for how we’re meant to live? In this episode of Joy Reveals, Joy Packard reflects on the value of looking back without getting stuck there. Our past can teach us, shape us, and remind us how far we’ve come—but it shouldn’t take up more of our attention than the road ahead. Joy explores regret, missed opportunities, uncertainty, and the grace of rerouting when life doesn’t go as planned. Sometimes we need to understand where we’ve been, then turn our attention toward where we’re going.
