Hi, I’m Jillian
I’m here to help you reconnect with what truly lights you up, whether that’s in your personal life, leadership, business, or workplace.
Living well and leading well are not separate pursuits.
When people feel connected to themselves, their work becomes clearer. Decisions feel more aligned. Relationships are connected. Leadership becomes steadier. Life feels more spacious, even in the midst of responsibility and growth.
Joy is not a bonus or a reward for getting everything right. It’s a foundation. A way of relating to yourself, your work, and the people around you that supports resilience, clarity, and meaningful impact.
This work supports individuals, leaders, teams, and organizations in making Joy a sustainable part of daily life and leadership, so success doesn’t come at the cost of wellbeing.
When Joy becomes the foundation, everything else begins to align.
My role is to guide and support this process through Joy-based education, mentorship, and leadership development.
My Journey
My journey hasn’t always been Joyful.
After navigating disconnection, burnout, and addiction, I learned firsthand that Joy is not something we wait for once life is “figured out.” It’s who we are. And in order to experience steadiness in this life, it’s something we must create space to remember, each and every day. Joy is a practice we return to when we’re ready to live and lead with intention.
Today, I’m a Joy Educator and Leadership Partner, and the Founder of The Academy of Joyful Living. I work with individuals, leaders, teams, and organizations who are ready to build lives, businesses, and cultures rooted in wellbeing, presence, and meaningful impact.
This work is grounded in lived experience, extensive training, and a deep respect for how uncomfortable life and leadership can feel.
Joy isn’t a fleeting emotion.
It’s a daily practice. A choice. A powerful way to lead your life.

My Approach
The Joy Method™ meets you where you are.
Whether you’re seeking greater fulfillment, growing a business with intention, leading others, or shaping culture, this work supports practical, sustainable shifts that integrate into real life and leadership.
Rather than surface-level self-care or more to-do lists, the focus is on building awareness and internal capacity. Joy becomes a steady foundation that supports clarity, resilience, and meaningful progress.
This is not about avoiding what’s hard. It’s about learning how to live and lead with presence, care, and intention. When Joy becomes the foundation, it naturally shapes how we live, connect, and work together.
How I Support Aligned Living, Leadership, and Culture
This work is rooted in awareness.
Awareness of how you feel.
Awareness of what’s aligned.
Awareness of what’s no longer sustainable.
Through The Joy Method™, I help individuals, leaders, teams, and organizations turn awareness into intentional action.
Because awareness plus action creates alignment.
Joy becomes the signal. Alignment becomes the outcome.
For those who feel called to bring this work into their teams or communities, the Joy Facilitator Certification Program offers training, support, and community to teach and facilitate Joy-based awareness practices in real-world settings.
Whether you’re here for personal growth, business or leadership development, or culture-building, there is a clear path forward that honours both well-being and meaningful impact.
