About me

A health coach, eating guide, and wellness motivator for busy moms like you

Welcome, I’m Joy, Founder of Joyful Wellbeing Mama and Healthier Habits Mama

As a solo mama of 8 kiddos and 2 grandsons, I know exactly what it feels like to be a busy, high-achieving mom who will do whatever it takes to be there for her family. With experience as a stay-at-home mama, home-school mama, a work-outside-the-home mama, and a work-from-home mama, I promise I have been in your shoes.

But juggling a career, home responsibilities, and wanting to spend time with our families often means that we let our own health hit the backburner. Exercise gets left off the to-do list more often than not, and it’s all you can do to slap a meal on the table after a long and exhausting day.

I get it. I’ve been there. But I also know the freedom that building healthier habits into your lifestyle can create. It’s time to redefine our health and wellbeing. Together, we can craft creative ways to add movement, joy, and wellness into your day-to-day routine, in a way that benefits not just you — but the whole family!

Family is important. And so is your wellbeing. Let’s work together to add accomplishable and sustainable healthy habits into your everyday life!

Part of taking care of your family is taking care of yourself.

You are worthy of living your very best life.

My Approach to Your Health and Happiness

From adding movement into your day, managing stress, crafting more nutritious meals, sleeping better at night, or indulging in self-care — I help mamas figure out what healthier habits they would like to incorporate into their busy lives while providing guidance and a community for their journey.

I will help you be flexible and find creative habit-building solutions that work for you. We won’t try to change everything at once, but instead find simple, focused solutions to help you feel better one day at a time.

I’m Giving You The Permission You Need To Put Your Wellbeing First

Plain and simple, being a mom is a stressful, but highly rewarding experience.  

We struggle from mom guilt, time mismanagement, a lack of sleep and motivation. It often feels like there is never enough time in the day, leading to stress and overwhelm. Maybe you are feeling resentful, like you have lost all sense of your purpose and identity outside of your family. Or maybe you feel overweight, don’t love your body, or aren’t eating right. 

It’s so easy to just not believe that you are worthy or justified in taking some time for yourself. I am here to tell you that you are worthy.

With just a little bit of time and effort every day, you can make your own health and happiness a priority. Stop feeling overwhelmed and riddled with stress and start feeling like the empowered and confident woman you are!  

Every mama deserves to make their health and wellbeing a priority. So don’t hold onto those feelings of guilt and anxiety for one more day!
