Are you sick and tired of feeling stuck in life? Do you constantly feel like you are trying to manage your responsibilities all at once as a mom, or wife only to be left completely exhausted by the end of each day? Do you deal with crippling fear & doubt that can invade your mind at any given moment and weighs you down mentally? Do you find yourself struggling with your self-worth and confidence when it comes to putting yourself first? Have you wrestled with the desire to grow deeper in relationship with God and see His plan for your life come to fruition, but you are still a little scared? There is a way to step out of the constant self-sabotage, gain control of your life and give yourself permission to live out the vision that God has for you! Hey, I’m Joy Johnson. Your new bestie, coach, mentor and sister in Christ that cannot wait to speak life into you and activate you to take action in the life that you have been so blessed with. I remember the days where I was hiding behind the very things that were robbing me of all of my time and energy. I was crippled by fear of failure, the opinions of others and lacked major boundaries. I was operating in a lack mentality in my motherhood, overcommitted to things that weren’t fully serving me and not letting my husband in on my mind battles. Not to mention allowing my relationship with God to be on the back burner because hello- there was no time for that. That was a recipe for disaster that quickly led to burn out and frustration. It wasn’t until I realized that I was absolutely not alone, and so many other women were struggling with the same things that I began to be honest with myself. I have since been able to apply a framework in structuring my life that has changed everything for the better. Through this podcast I will share with you HOW to: • Discover, design & develop a vision the vision God has for you • Simplify your daily systems to bring transformation in your mental, emotional & physical health • Embrace the power of consistency and release the perfectionistic mindset once and for all • Heal from your past and not let it hinder your future • Find joy in your Journey to Becoming all that God has created you to be I am honored to be on this journey alongside you, grab your amazingly oversized water bottle & let’s live out our God dreams, together!

Hey friend, please don’t skip this episode if you haven’t read a book since Jr. High, I promise it will be worth the listen! Reading books is such a great way to learn from those that have gone before you and have wisdom in the areas you are intentional about pursuing. I believe that there are a few simple & practical things that you can do while you are reading to ensure that you can live out what you are reading and allow time for transformation to take place.
The books that have marked my life in the best ways have been in the genre of Christianity and Personal Development from Christian authors. This is our Journey to Becoming and we need to take action in being lifelong learners and being responsible in applying it in our everyday lives!
I pray this blesses you,

Have you ever said the phrase “I just want to hear God’s voice”?! I am sure we all have or wondered what it would be like. I have news for you, friend. He IS speaking, I think the better question is “are we listening?!” When our days are flying by and can sometimes be chaotic, the enemy would love nothing more than to make us think that God is not there or he doesn’t care about us. Today we are going over just 5 of the ways to be encouraged that He is absolutely speaking.
Whether this is a fresh perspective or a long overdue reminder, I pray that you take to heart these ways and put into practice, not just all at once in a hurried- religious way; but that you would choose to start small and consistently incorporate them into your day and watch how God shows up!

Today I was in my personal devotional time, journaling and getting ready for the day when I felt God impress upon me to share what I had just read. Our thought life is so important as we are on our Journey to Becoming all that God has created us to be. Sometimes we can allow our thoughts to take us back to places or keep us stuck in past versions of ourselves.
Romans 12:2 is a popular scripture about not conforming to the patterns of this world and allowing our transformation to take place through the renewal of our minds. It’s not a one time thing, it is daily, multiple times a day…all day err day can I get an Amen? So I want to ask you today… “How are you thinking?!”

How in the hee haw are we here already?! The last quarter of the year is upon us. Cue all the holiday stress, obligations, parties, hosting, running around etc…. But what if this year was different? What if you chose to have a different perspective on what finishing strong meant?!
When we can be intentional in choosing how we show up in the last three months of the year I believe that we can accomplish so much more- not by doing more, but by simply being! The more will come, from our source, Jesus. In our being and becoming He shows off in our weaknesses and shortcomings.

The days are long but the years are short. Time flies when you are raising children, like so fast, right?! I know that as a mama you want to soak up every moment that you can and maybe even the thought of being intentional can overwhelm you. I want you to release any negative feelings that you may be carrying and realize the amazing job you are doing!
We are talking about different ways to embrace the seasons we will go through in our motherhood and how to “grow in character daily”. I hope that as this series comes to a close you have been able to release or begin to heal from a past hurt, grow in your confidence and look forward to enjoying your seasons of motherhood because it is a gift!

We are back for Part 2 of the Motherhood Series and talking about all things CONFIDENCE. Where does it ultimately come from and how can we continue to develop it as our Motherhood progresses. So many of us don’t even like to admit this is an area we need help with and in choosing that we will remain in feelings of frustration, exhaustion and isolation.
I read a quote that says “I will not waste today believing things you did not say” and I believe that so many of us can relate with allowing the lies or fears as moms rule our minds. But not anymore, after this episode I hope that you can put into practice some of the tools shared as you remain on your Journey to Becoming and how putting yourself first is essential to remaining confident in your Mom Life Era.
Remember that you are not alone and you are worth the work!

Motherhood- the craziest hood out there! This episode is the beginning of a mini-series on Motherhood and I wanted to start off with how important it is to stay committed to your healing. Jesus may be in your heart, but Grandpa is still in your bones meaning that past trauma- if not dealt with will continue to transfer through your lineage, if you aren’t willing to do something about it.
If you are familiar with the term “stronghold”, all families have them, it’s something that has a “strong hold” that may have lasted for generations such as addiction, abuse, anger, and in my family… suicide.
I had to come to terms with the fact that I will need to heal from the lack mentality that showed up in my life that was caused by my mother taking her life. In order for me to pass down blessings to my children and future legacy, I will have to stay committed to allow God to heal my life so that I can be that cycle breaker. Let’s be the ones who stay committed to our healing!

Today I wanted to share a little more of my story with you and the significance of this new month we are stepping into. Hello, September- it has been one of high-highs and low-lows from my birthday & wedding anniversary and also the tragic loss of my brother. Who you surround yourself with in life matters, especially when you are on your healing journey.
No matter what type of loss or trial you may have experienced or are currently facing- culture can tell us something completely different than what God’s word does. God reminds us in His word that when we go through trials and are tested that when we have the right perspective our endurance will grow and we will lack nothing.
It’s one thing to read those words and be encouraged when everything is going well, and it is another thing to have to live those words out. Isolation, fear and doubt will always try to get the best of you, but we serve a God that has promised us everything in abundance and more than we can expect. I hope that you find comfort in that truth today!

Hey friend! Did you know that you can do hard things?! Today we are looking at the science behind leveraging dopamine to help us take on these challenging things. Dopamine is basically our brain's reward system and we are going to learn the difference between the fake and the natural examples.
After this episode I am confident that you will have a better understanding of how your daily activities contribute to building up or breaking down the idea of doing hard things! We are in this together girl, let’s keep going, one step at a time!
I pray this blesses you,
