Sonya Joy Mack

Odds are you know what it feels like to lose someone you love and have no idea what to do without them. You might even find yourself surrounded by people who think you should move on, but you just want your loved one back. It’s okay. They don’t understand grief is a journey and everyone’s path is different.

In the grief of my mother’s passing, I became ignited with a passion to bring joy and purpose to grieving hearts everywhere. I created The LIVE JOY LIFE, an organization that empowers women through community, mindset, and the LIVE JOY principles, to live in the joy God intended. My debut book "This Changes Everything: When Death No Longer Has the Final Say," is a true story of hope and healing for anyone who's ever lost someone they love.

I live in Des Moines, Iowa with my superhero husband and two spunky daughters, where I enjoy red wine, dark chocolate, big hugs, and living room dance parties. I continue to advocate for a treatment and cure for ALS, the disease that took her mother’s life.

I'd be honored if you would join me on Instagram @sonyajoymack, Facebook at www.facebook.com/SonyaJoyMackAuthor, or become a part of the LIVE JOY LIFE family at www.sonyajoymack.com.
