I highly recommend Joy if your organization is looking for a professional, engaging, and knowledgeable presenter.
I am thrilled to give a BIG kudos to Joy Freeman, CEO of JOY, Just Own Yours for presenting an empowering and transformative mastermind presentation to the members of Black Women United. Her presentation, "Unshakeable Strength: Empowering Black Women to Conquer Challenges", focused on the unique obstacles that Black women face in their professional journeys, and gave them easy-to-implement strategies to overcome these barriers. I've had very positive feedback from members who have watched the replay as well. I highly recommend Joy if your organization is looking for a professional, engaging, and knowledgeable presenter. Thank you so much, Joy!

Her message, her delivery, her engagement was exceptional and inspiring.
Such a pleasure getting to meet and learn from Joy at a recent Mental Health in the Workplace event where she was the keynote speaker. Her message, her delivery, her engagement was exceptional and inspiring. Not only did she provide valuable (practical) recommendations on how to manage potentially challenging mental health situations in the workplace, she also facilitated one of the best, most meaningful and engaging group conversation with all attendees that I've ever experienced and been a part of. She's funny, she's sincere, and her passion for the work she does is evident in the energy she brings. Can't recommend Joy enough for anyone or any organization looking for effective strategies to help better manage mental health in the workplace and beyond. Thanks for all you do Joy, you're a blessing.
