happy-go-lucky

“Kids have all kinds of emotions. They can be happy-go-lucky, but oftentimes they get angry or frustrated. This season, we feature some of those things. We don’t shy away from it.”

“Within like five to 10 days … a happy-go-lucky kid comes to L.A., and then a week later, no shoes. And he’s dead.”

Even the happy-go-lucky Joel has demons of doubt and past trauma.

"As a child, she was a happy-go-lucky little girl. She loved to do things especially if it was something she could win at. She'd try anything."
