We had the good fortune of connecting with JOY! and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi JOY!, Let’s talk about principles and values – what matters to you most?
Integrity and Perspective

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I’m a world expert in clearing stress in 3 minutes or less because it was learn or die I was hit by a drunk driver at 24. Doctors said my brain injuries were such that I’d be dead or brain dead by 30.
My frontal lobes scan like an autistic child.

After the doctors gave up on me I studied holistic healing, became certified in more than a dozen modalities and learned to treat my brain like a computer. I could no longer think forward or remember back reliably, so I learned how to think UP and look down. Perspective became my super power
In this way I reprogrammed the neurological pathways of my brain to bypass the injuries to literally operate from a Higher Perspective.

At 30, instead of basket weaving, which is what the court appointed psychiatrist suggested, I’d co-created a whole new software support industry in Australia. I became the first individual ever to be nominated for an IT&T Award for Excellence in Industry development.
I started the company with a $30 cheque that bounced, and I know nothing about computers to this day.

I am Uniquely Qualified to Guide people in Surviving ‘Impossible’ things, Thriving Against All Odds and Experiencing JOY Regardless of Circumstance

These days I teach people how to reprogram their brain for optimal levels of Productivity and JOY, and of course, how to clear stress in 3 minutes or less.

Sharing what I learned in my journeys between the worlds and back to health. It’s what makes my cartoonlike life make sense.

I am a Tribe Maker, I believe the way forward is together.
One of my passions is facilitating Red Tents: Women’s Empowerment Circles held on the Sunday nearest each new moon
The intention is to bring women together, skill them up, bond them and teach them how to have one another’s backs
I’ve been blown away by the quality of the women who show up for these potent nights
When Women Gather in Intentional ways the world changes

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I moved to Carlsbad on Christmas Eve and it’s everything good and wonderful that a Village could possibly be I’d take my friend all around the Village. We’d have breakfast at SWAMIs walk around the cute little shops, visit the beach.

We’d go to Alta Vista Gardens on Tuesday afternoon for a picnic and photo shoot, then yoga at 4pm followed by happy hour sunset. It’s definitely a half day adventure, there’s so much to enjoy in the different gardens

We’d visit Elfin Forest. Walk around Encinitas, enjoy the wonderful Gardens at SRF. Stop by the Peace Garden up behind SRF. Paint rocks at the Rock Garden by Moonlight Beach,

Eat at Bushfire Kitchen, it’s all farm to table. Have lunch upstairs at Ki’s – almost same view as the Charthouse but way cheaper with better food.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I want to shout out my BFF Greta Grace whose love and support literally saved my life these last few years while I work through health challenge.
