About Joy:
Joy “Pink Girl Teaches” is an energetic, life-loving “girl-next- door” who loves encouraging others to fulfill their potential in Christ. She firmly believes God’s Word in Jeremiah 29:11, “I know the plans that I have for you.”
She is a certified Dating & Relationship Coach who passionately helps her clients change the path that they take in search for meaning, dignity, purpose, hope and love. She is a Sexual & Narcissistic abuse advocate, author and host of the Project Real Love podcast.
Her breakthrough memoir Beyond the Mask, captures readers attention as she transparently shares her journey from shame to showstopper. She candidly talks about her road to recovery from the long term effects of childhood sexual assault. She gives insight on how codependency influenced her adult relationships choices and translates the importance of self love and boundaries. An overcomer of narcissistic abuse, she stands tall in God’s power to transform lives. She is a Co-author of “Life in The Diaspora”.
The Project Real Love Podcast, promotes a healthy image of love without compromise and aims to shatter myths about what love is and is not. It is the place, where myths are dispelled and you are equipped to find that imperfect but perfect love for you.
She honestly shares the principles of God’s Word via the podium and the pen through the lens of her own life. With humor and vulnerability, Joy tells-it- like-it- is but does so with grace, integrity, and love. She authentically encourages and challenges others to:
