ABOUT US
Dedicated to Empowering Women Navigating Life’s Toughest Transitions
Welcome to Joyous Again, where I combine my professional training and personal experience to help others move beyond grief and rediscover joy.
Through one-on-one and group coaching, workshops, and retreats, I guide women to overcome obstacles, uncover their passions, and build lasting resilience.
My approach integrates practical tools, positive habits, and healthy mindsets, because healing isn’t just emotional; it’s whole-person work.
My Story of Resilience
For years, I hesitated to share my story. It felt too heavy, too much. But my story is also one of transformation, and that’s what makes this work possible.
I’ve experienced deep loss: the deaths of my brother, stepson, and beloved husband Daniel. I’ve faced divorce, cancer, financial upheaval, and even losing my home to fire.
Each of these experiences could have broken me.
Instead, they forged in me an unwavering belief:
Resilience is not born from ease, it’s built through practice.
I didn’t want to just be strong. I wanted to be happy. That desire to move forward and become joyous again inspired my journey to become a Resilience Empowerment Coach and to help others rise with compassion and courage.
Professional Background
Before founding Joyous Again LLC in Tampa, Florida, I spent decades in high-impact roles - from investment consulting at a Fortune 500 company to philanthropy leadership in the nonprofit sector and group health coaching.
In every position, two things were constant:
my passion for empowering others and my ability to inspire transformation. As a motivational speaker with over 30 years of experience, I lead presentations and workshops on resilience, wellness, and the pursuit of joy - helping audiences learn how to move through adversity with intention and grace.
Our Team.
Together, we ensure that every Joyous Again experience, whether coaching or retreat, is supportive, seamless, and transformational.
A PERSONAL INVITATION
If you’ve endured loss, challenge, or transition - you are not broken.
You are becoming.
Loss changes us, but it doesn’t have to define us.
After grief, you’re not who you once were, and you’re not yet who you’re becoming. You’re in the tender in-between - learning, rebuilding, reimagining. You are becoming the woman who can hold her past with love, live her present with purpose, and open her future with joy. This is your invitation to that becoming.
Through coaching, you’ll gain the tools, clarity, and courage to reconnect with your inner wisdom and start creating a life that reflects who you are now - not who you were before loss, but who you are becoming: resilient, radiant, and joyfully alive.
When we work together, you can expect:
-
A compassionate space where you’re seen, heard, and supported without judgment.
-
Clarity and direction to help you navigate decisions, transitions, and emotions with intention.
-
Practical tools to rebuild confidence, strengthen resilience, and care for yourself in meaningful ways.
-
Renewed energy and purpose as you discover what brings you peace, fulfillment, and joy again.
-
Accountability and guidance to help you move forward - one steady, doable step at a time.
TAKE YOUR FIRST STEP
Coaching isn’t about fixing you. It’s about uncovering what’s already within you - your strength, your wisdom, your capacity for joy.
