It all started with a little thing called the PTA! Choose Joy founders, Sonya May and Glenna Sanford met while volunteering for their local school PTA and the rest is history! At the time, both were pursuing their own paths to bring more joy to the world – Sonya had just finished her first book, “In Search of Joy,” and Glenna was working with the National Speakers Association to more fully develop her message of “The Power of Joy.” The word “joy” was mentioned during their first meeting and they knew they were meant to join forces.
So that’s just what they did! In 2007, they formed Choose Joy, Inc. Sonya’s husband, Bill, jumped onboard with the vision of showing people how to thrive in their lives! Sonya, Glenna and Bill have a passion to actively inspire people to live the message of Choose Joy - the life we live is our choice so if we want to live a joyful life, then we need to make the choices to LIVE a joyful life! In addition to inspirational seminars and keynotes, they’ve developed a bold approach to bring their message into the home, as well as to the corporate office, and actively teach people how to begin actually living the message. This approach resulted in the development of the Choose Joy product line and the unique method they call The Easy Joy Party.
While the home parties are directed toward women, their message is global in nature: make the choices that will create the life you want to live. And it is this message that they want to spread to anyone who will listen – not just women! So while Sonya is busy bring the message into the homes of women all over the country, Glenna is speaking to Boards of Directors, corporations as well as small groups.
