WHOLENESS.
EARTH.
EMBODIMENT.
JOY.
Building True Generational Wealth.
The kind that creates whole humans and healthy communities.
We're living through a crisis of disconnection—burnout, inherited trauma, and a constant feeling that we're not enough. But what if the solution isn't another quick fix?
What if prosperity began within? In how deeply we know ourselves, how authentically we love, and how we live in right relationship with one another and the land?
At Whole with Joy, we guide people from scarcity patterns into lives of embodied power, authentic relationships, and aligned abundance. This means going to the root: healing what holds you back and creating prosperity that serves all of life.
We work with individuals, communities, and organizations ready to reclaim their power and create change through embodied healing, earth connection, and collective care.
What if you already have everything you need within you? We're here to walk alongside you as you remember that truth and create the abundant, authentic life aligned with who you really are.

Meet Joy
Born and raised in the American South, I carry the resilience and wisdom of my parents, survivors of Jim Crow and the Vietnam War, and the strength and ingenuity of my African and Indigenous ancestors, while reckoning with the complexity and pain of my European lineage. Like each of us, I am a multidimensional being, embracing the contradictions, richness, and wholeness that make us who we are.
I created Whole with Joy because I know what it feels like to carry the weight of the world's conditions—to feel broken, insecure, and unsure of how to break free from cycles of pain and scarcity. I didn't know my own value, and that showed up in all my relationships: with friends, lovers, money, and my purpose.
But I fought for myself, and I still do. I've invested in my healing, learned to understand my patterns, set boundaries, and chosen differently than the survival strategies I inherited. This is ongoing work. Through this journey, I've learned that transformation isn't about fixing what's broken—it's about reclaiming who you are and rediscovering the joy of being alive.
With 15 years of experience in mental health spanning community care, medical settings, and private practice, my work integrates trauma-conscious care, Earth wisdom, and indigenous healing traditions, grounded in Somatic Experiencing, Attachment Theory, Ecotherapy, and Trauma Resiliency Model. I understand suffering—and therefore healing—as ecological, spiritual, and relational
.At the root of our suffering lies disconnection from our true nature, showing up as inherited generational and spiritual poverty that distorts how we relate to ourselves, money, love, and life itself. We inherit both wealth and poverty—but true generational wealth isn't material. It's knowing who you are, understanding your history, living your purpose, and being rooted in interdependence. True prosperity is an embodied knowing that you belong and are already enough. This inner knowing transforms everything.
This work is deeply informed by my journey of motherhood, which has taught me what it means to embrace wholeness and pour abundance into the next generation. We're not just healing ourselves. We're building true generational wealth to pass down.
Mission
Whole with Joy reimagines prosperity as wholeness, transforming inherited patterns of poverty into embodied abundance that serves ourselves, our communities, and the planet.
