Lip Gloss and Trail Dust: Joyrise Coaching

Episode 3: Alignment

In this episode of Lip Gloss & Trail Dust, I take you into a raw, unfiltered, real-time reflection on alignment—what it means, how I recognize it in my life, and where I’m wrestling with misalignment. I talk openly about faith, values, and boundaries, as well as the messy realities of finances, health struggles, and people-pleasing patterns. You’ll hear how I define alignment through my relationship with God, what a fully aligned day looks like for me, and the small but powerful ways I’m learning to notice, reset, and even celebrate alignment. This isn’t a polished teaching—it’s an honest process. My hope is that as you listen, you’ll feel permission to reflect on your own alignment in real time, without pressure to be perfect. Because change doesn’t happen in polish—it happens in honesty. Let’s rise.

Episode 2–Phase One: Center

On this episode of *Lip Gloss & Trail Dust*, Joy dives into Phase One of The Joyrise Method: Center. Feeling lost? Or maybe just starting out on your coaching journey? Centering is the first step. It's where real change begins. Joy breaks it down like this: - **Meet yourself** right where you are, no pretending. - **Find out who you are** outside of all your roles—parent, partner, employee. Who’s left? - **Set a Rise Intention** that’s doable and meaningful. Not just a goal, but something you can actually stick with and grow. - **Try grounding techniques** that help you feel at home in your own skin. - **Figure out your core values**—the things that matter most, and will guide your next move. Here’s the thing: Centering isn’t just step one. It’s a loop. Life throws curveballs. Good days, bad days, big changes—you’ll come back to Center over and over. Give it a listen. Take a moment to think about where you are. It’s your first step toward something new. I know when I started, I was surprised by how powerful just *pausing* could be. Maybe you will be, too.
