So often we think people who are happy have had easy lives, and Shari Alyse is living proof that despite hardships you can still become a joy magnet. Co-founder of The Wellness Universe, Soul Ventures and an internationally recognized speaker, truth coach, author and blogger, Shari radiates joy and dedicates her life to spreading the message of finding the love that exists within.

After sexual molestation at age seven, resulting in her testifying on the stand and eventually sentencing her abuser to prison, Shari had no idea that her trauma was still following her years later. It wasn't until a life-changing trip that she realized the joy she had been searching for all along was inside of each and every human being. Now Shari is passionate about reigniting the light in everyone and bringing joy back to people's lives after they feel like they lost it for good.

Joy is at the heart of who we all are as people, it is your choice to tap into it and share your gift with the world. Even when something rocks your world, if you are able to stand up for yourself and fight for your inner power, you too can find never-ending joy.

"This is about you knowing that nothing on the outside matters. It doesn't matter what your financial status is, and it doesn't matter what things you have or what your relationship is, joy is something that we all just have and its whether we choose to tap into it or not." (16:55)

"I know this sucks, I know that it's hard, but I also know that because of who we are and what we were built to be, that we are and you are okay." (29:32)
