Joy’s “Writing from the Soul” retreat was a truly profound and unexpected gift. She cultivates an environment that encourages genuine inquiry and thoughtful exploration, all while guiding you forward in your writing process. She is a rare and remarkable soul.

BECKY HENSLEY
If you are looking for renewed energy for your creative project, you are certain to find it by spending a weekend retreat with Joy! I’ve found new ideas, inspiration, and passion for my writing in many of Joy’s retreats, and I always walk away with both new vision and immense gratitude.

OLIVIA SIMON
Joy guided us through a schedule filled with energizing activities and thoughtful conversation. My writing skills improved that weekend, because Joy always shines a light on what’s working in my pieces, and gives me useful guidance about craft. As a result of the retreat, I found the motivation and courage to keep moving forward on my creative journey.

MAGGIE MILLER
I’m not a writer but I thoroughly enjoyed this retreat. I found that by exploring a different art form, it helped with creativity in other areas of life. I came away feeling grounded, open, and refreshed from having met such wonderful women, and from exploring parts of myself I tend to ignore in the rush of daily life. I would encourage others to allow themselves to experience these retreats as well.
