The Joy CEO - Blog
Letâs face it, there are plenty of ordinary people saying and doing rather ordinary things and finding great fame and fortune as a result. We see them all day long on social media. Influencers trying to influence, with little to no star power.

The neatly dressed man held a familiar sign at the bottom of the Tucson airport escalator. âCanyon Ranchâ was my cue that he would drive me to the coveted resort.

Did you happen to catch my LinkedIn post last week as I was prepping a talk for International Womenâs Day?

I LOVE public speaking. The first time I ever gave a speech was for my 4th grade commencement. I was ten years old. My whole family sat in the front row and I was my best possible self I co...
Joy? Letâs be honest, itâs not even in your top 10 things to do. Youâve got more important things to handle: the board meeting, the customer presentation, the imploding supply chain crisis (I mean shouldnât we be done with this sh*& already?!), your boss wants to talk about the âthingâ, the school ...

Imagine this: youâve checked all the boxes. Youâve reached some of your biggest goals: you just got the promotion with THE title, you now have THE pay, youâre finally in THE house. Youâve got the kids, the car, the Louis. Life is pretty damn good. You stay busy and booked with color coded calenda...
Ever since I can remember, I had a longing, an ache. I have worked from home for years, decades. I would travel to see customers, bosses, teammates. Planes, trains, and automobiles has always been a tagline. Iâve never minded the busyness, but there were times when a hint of loneliness was palat...

Happy July! I hope this blog post finds you in a serene beach setting, where you can unwind with your favorite beach read, SPF protecting your skin, and a refreshing sparkling water by your side. When Iâm at the beach, I canât help but let my mind wander and indulge in daydreams.
