Behind the Mic: Joi's Audacious Communication Playbook
Hey there,
Ever tripped over your words in a cringe-worthy convo or felt cornered in a tense standoff? Trust me, I get it. After life tossed me the wild card of surprise brain surgery, I didn’t just recover—I refocused.
Plunging into the world of communication, I transformed my challenges into my expertise. Today, I'm at the helm of Audacious Communication Collective (ACC), rocking the globe as a sought-after trainer, mediating like it's an art form, and—fun fact—the American Bar Association thought I was cool enough for a fellowship in dispute resolution. I’ve been negotiating for 20+ years and trained at some of the most prestegious schools in the country, so I love a challenge.
Ready to level up your communication skills? C'mon, join the party—I've got the playbook!"

About Me
Embracing Audacity
Ever wondered, "What's the worst that could happen?" I took that question to heart. Brain surgery was my wake-up call to audaciously embrace who I was meant to be.
Living Boldly
Now, my life is an unfolding story of bold choices. It's about risk-taking, stepping out of comfort zones, and exceeding not just others' expectations but my own as well.
The Unexpected Gift
You won't believe this: I actually gained IQ points after brain surgery! It turns out, challenges really do make us stronger.
