The room you've been
looking for exists.

The Connect is a coaching circle for ambitious women who are done grinding in silence. 12–15 women. Real coaching. Real connection. A framework that actually sticks.

Summer 2026 kicks off May 1. 
Only 12–15 spots available — enrollment closes when they're gone.

Sound Familiar?

You've checked every box.
So why does it still feel heavy?

  • You're high-performing and deeply capable — and still second-guessing yourself in the quiet moments
  • You celebrate wins alone because the people around you don't quite understand the pressure you're carrying
  • Your calendar is triple-booked, your inbox is out of control, and you're still somehow the most reliable person in every room
  • You know something needs to shift — but you don't have the space or the people to actually figure out what
  • You're tired of doing this by yourself

"Every week the questions made me meditate on how I feel, what I want, what I need. It's helped me get to know myself better — and therefore have more confidence."

What's inside?

Six months.
Real women.
Real coaching.

The Connect is intentionally small, intentionally intimate, and intentionally different from every group you've sat in before.

2 Live Coaching Calls / Month

Group coaching calls with Lori on Zoom — themed, guided, and grounded in what you're actually navigating right now. Not theory. Real work.

Private Circle Group

Connection doesn't pause between calls. Your people are in your pocket — for wins, hard days, quick questions, and everything in between.

The Hula Hoop Theory

Lori's proprietary framework becomes your lens for every leadership challenge: what's in your circle, what's not, and how to stop carrying what isn't yours.

The JOY Flywheel

Gratitude → Radical Ownership → Alignment → JOY. A practical system for building the kind of clarity and confidence that compounds over time.

Friday Wins Practice

A weekly ritual for acknowledging what you've built, shifted, and moved — because high achievers are great at moving to the next thing and terrible at celebrating.

Your coach

Hi. I'm Lori.
I built this because
I needed it.

I spent 25 years in corporate America — rising to Customer VP managing billion-dollar business units for globally recognized brands. I had the title, the paycheck, the boardroom presence.

And I was completely running on empty.

In 2021, I left corporate and launched The JOY CEO®. I learned the hard way that joy isn't a reward you earn after the work. It's the fuel that makes the work sustainable. That shift changes everything — in your leadership, your decisions, and the kind of woman you become in the process.

The Connect is the room I wish had existed when I was a VP figuring it out alone. I built it for you.

From the women inside

Real wins from
real members — in their words

"For me, the biggest win has been leaning into my authentic self. Having a safe space with like-minded women has allowed me to bloom."

— Connect Member, Q1 2026

"The Hula Hoop Theory changed how I make decisions. Now I ask myself: is this in my hula hoop? If the answer is no — I let it go. It's kept me calm through things that used to derail me completely."

— Anonymous, Connect Member Q1 2026

"I've given myself more credit for all that I've done. I'm visioning bigger for the future and reframing the narratives I've told myself for so long."

— Connect Member, Q1 2026

"I've felt more connected in my other relationships. Sharing more openly with others, and seeking to better understand them. The ripple surprised me."

— Anonymous, Connect Member Q1 2026

"I allowed myself to feel vulnerable and unsure — and didn't give up on exploring that. Sometimes there's no answer other than to show up and be."

— Connect Member, Q1 2026

"Meeting so many incredible women who are open, vulnerable, and genuinely supportive. Knowing I am where I need to be — and that things are coming."
