Dear Annie Joy
This podcast is for women who feel deeply, give endlessly, and are ready to reconnect with their voice, their worth, and their joy.
Hosted by speaker and trainer Annie Joy, this show offers emotional wellness tools, faith-based encouragement, and honest conversations to help you heal from burnout, people-pleasing, and quiet loneliness.
If you’ve been holding it all together while feeling unseen, you’re not alone and you’re not too much.
We’ll talk about:
– Healing from emotional burnout and people-pleasing
– Building meaningful friendships that feel safe and soul-aligned
– Reclaiming your voice and rediscovering your identity
– Finding joy after heartbreak, grief, and when the plan fell apart
– Practicing sustainable emotional wellness in daily life
This isn’t about fixing yourself. It’s about remembering who you already are.
Because joy should feel like coming home.
