Our Partners

The Truth, the Lie, and My Dope AF Life: From Pain to Purpose

Joy describes her own personal healing journey and how she confronted the lie that her life was perfect. She bravely faced the truth about how she was actually experiencing the world: struggling, overwhelmed, and on the edge. Speaking directly to the Black woman who is accomplished and successful but doesn't feel the way she looks.

The Black Superwoman Syndrome: From Surviving to Thriving

Through her own personal anecdotes from her professional career, Joy will examine how the Black Superwoman Syndrome typically shows up in our world. Demonstrating that the unsustainable hustle and grind and “work twice as hard” mindsets that have been adopted are exactly why you’re burned out.

Stop Telling Black Women They Have Imposter Syndrome: Reimagining Racial Conditioning

Through this transformative talk, Joy centers the discussion around imposter syndrome as an environmental concern as opposed to another burden for Black women to take on. She reminds the audience that Black women are acutely aware of their capabilities and competencies and that what they are feeling is a normal response to an environment of microaggressions, misogyny, and misogynoir.

Getting Beyond the Burnout: Addressing the Mental Health Crisis in the Legal Profession

Joy will discuss how the culture of the legal profession can contribute to mental health issues and how addressing these issues will require a systemic shift in the industry's approach to work-life balance and well-being.

She will share her personal insights on the nature of the mental health crisis afflicting the legal profession, including the prevalence of anxiety, depression, addiction, and suicide among lawyers.
