Joy is a full-time wife and mother to a twice-exceptional child. She advocates for better education, food allergy awareness, positive self-esteem and ending the mental health stigma.<\/p>\n

To fill her little piece of spare time, she is a blogger, freelance writer, WordPress enthusiast and runs a successful yoga & art therapy business. She loves learning about the world of blogging and all that WordPress can do for the art of writing.

I was born to plan & organize. I thrive on the challenge and love designing events that create opportunities for growth, as we never should stop growing! I am what some may call a dreamer. A free spirit. A collector of hobbies. I want to do and see everything I can. I am always learning, growing, failing and trying again. Just as Gloria Steinem once said, \u201cDreaming after all, is a form of planning\u201d.<\/p>\n
