This podcast is honest and shares the everyday struggle of women
This podcast is raw and real in all the best ways! As a person that has experienced loss, I have cried and laughed with Joi (yes Joi with an “i”😃). I was a late comer to this podcast but have been making my way through the episodes (sometimes 3 a day 😂). I’m finishing up with 2021 and am enjoying it all.

So often society sees professionals, especially those in the ... more
It’s so refreshing to hear that we all go thru similar struggles. It’s so refreshing to hear someone be honest and open! Joi is one of the reasons I sought a therapist! The decision was one of the best things ever for me and my now husband! Keep doing your thing girl! I love to tune in , catch up , laugh , cry, pray and just all round enjoy the vibes!
When I first listened to Joi Podcast, My first thought was this is similar to my life and what i was going through. I had the opportunity to meet her and I just love the Joi she brings. Every episodes is very intentional, and leaves you feeling connected. I find Inspiration and motivation. Her podcast is real and raw.
