Balance Is Not a Luxury, It’s a Lifeline!

At one point in my life, I poured everything I had into my relationship, my time, my energy, my thoughts. Everything revolved around that one area. And when things didn’t go well there, I completely fell apart. Why? Because I had neglected the other pillars of my life. My health, my purpose, my friendships, and my spiritual walk were all running on empty.

That season taught me a deeply sobering lesson: "When your life is out of balance, even the smallest shake in one area can cause your whole world to crumble."

Relationships are beautiful, powerful, and absolutely worth investing in, I myself am still investing in mine. However, this can’t happen at the cost of losing yourself because you will have nothing to give. You are a whole person, called to thrive emotionally, spiritually, financially, mentally, and physically. When there is balance in your life and you are overflowing with fullness you can minister to others from a much better place.

Don’t let one area of what we call, "The Grid Of Life" consume all of you. There must be a healthy, intentional balance between your relationship, your career, your calling, and your character. Balance isn’t about perfection, it’s about wisdom.

Take time to pour into every part of who you are.

Pause for a moment and reflect: how have you been distributing your efforts? Look at the full picture. Every piece of this life puzzle matters. Each part contributes to your joy, peace, and wholeness.

Choose balance today.

Maybe you have experienced this before like me. Some people dread the weekend.

Not because of the rest… but because of the stillness.The longer hours at home. The quiet.
The lack of distraction. The confrontation… with yourself.

But do you know what I have found?

The weekend, when done well, can be your time to pause, reflect and re-center.

Not to overthink or punish yourself… but to gently process the week that was. Take a moment and think:

✅ Did you try your best?
✅ Did something shake you?
✅ Did you feel unseen, unheard, or stretched too thin?

I am just a dear friend here to give you permission to be honest with you, not harsh.
To speak kindly to yourself in the silence.
To treat your own heart like it matters. Because it does!

Don’t dread the downtime.
Don’t fear the four walls or the quiet spaces.

Use the weekend to breathe, to listen inward, to heal, laugh, realign...especially when no one’s watching.

Have a Joy Activated weekend dear friends.

The Power of Community 🤍 | Joy Activated June Reflections

Many of you see the woman I am today and admire the journey, and I’m truly humbled. But I want you to know: I didn’t just arrive here. I didn’t wake up one day and find myself like this.

I’m coming from somewhere. From pain. From struggle. From prayers whispered in the dark with a tearful face. And in response to those prayers, God sent divine destiny helpers! People who saw more in me than I could see in myself.

They pulled me out of the mud, soaked me in grace and wisdom, washed off old thinking, and helped me reprogram my mindset. It wasn’t easy. But it was necessary.

It doesn’t just take a village to raise a child; it takes a community to raise a person of substance. Not someone famous. Not someone with the most followers. But someone who is fully living out their God-given purpose with courage, clarity, and conviction and support.

As we mark the last day of June, I encourage you to take a conscious step. Look around you. Who is in your corner? Who stretches you? Who lifts your hands when you're weary?

Surround yourself with people who sharpen you, challenge you, and celebrate your growth. Make room for community, not just company.

There is joy in walking with others.
There is healing in safe spaces.
There is power in divine connections.

Let’s activate that kind of joy!

Choose to Dance

One thing I’ve come to learn is this: life will always have its ups and downs, but you get to choose what you focus on.

Reading the book The Power of Positive Thinking, by Norman Vincent Peale, really shifted something in me. It taught me how powerful our thoughts are. I began training my mind to look for the good, to celebrate the small wins, and to live in gratitude, and slowly, I felt lighter. Happier. Free!

No matter what you are going through, always choose to dance!

Because life is too short to stay stuck in fear or worry.
Because there’s still beauty in the chaos.
Because choosing joy is powerful.

So, friend, when your song comes on, even if the rhythm is shaky, I hope you dance!

Stir It Up! Your Gift Is Already Inside You!

"Therefore I remind you to stir up the gift of God which is in you..." — 2 Timothy 1:6 (NKJV)

Have you ever made a cup of tea, added sugar, but when you took a sip nothing? Tasteless. You could have sworn you added sweetness. But here’s the truth: the sugar was there it had just settled to the bottom.

That’s how some of our gifts are. They don’t disappear. They don’t expire. But they can sink under the weight of self-doubt, fear, past disappointment, or simply neglect. Just because you can’t feel the power of your gift right now doesn’t mean it’s not there.

🌀 It’s time to stir it up.
🌀 Time to activate the joy.
🌀 Time to reclaim what God has already placed inside you.

Your calling isn’t missing; it’s just waiting to be stirred. And when you do, everything sweet, powerful, and full of purpose will rise to the surface.

So to every dreamer, builder, and believer out there: don’t let your gift stay at the bottom. Stir it. Activate it. Let it transform not just you but everyone you're called to impact.

The world needs what’s already in you. Happy weekend!

We honour the fathers who protect, nurture, lead with compassion, and love without conditions.

The ones who show up, strong yet gentle, firm yet kind. Fathers who reflect the heart of our Heavenly Father.

Happy Father’s Day

Nuggets from our last event!

If we were to put a pen in every hand, I know we’d find a powerful story!

We all have a story. One that can heal, inspire, and impact lives, if we’re brave enough to share it.

I remember when I got married, I started off so full of hope, dreams, and purpose. Everything seemed to be going well. But somewhere along the journey, I lost myself.

I couldn’t recognize the woman in the mirror anymore.

The smile faded.
The fire dimmed.
I slipped into a quiet depression.

I stopped calling myself by my name, I only answered to Mai Ryan. I didn’t even feel worthy of my own identity. My confidence was shattered. My self-esteem was buried under the weight of brokenness.

But then came the turning point: Personal development.

Ladies if there is one thing I emphasised, it was mentorship, prayer, and intentional healing, there is need to take active action toward becoming the best version of yourself!

With personal development I slow journeyed back to myself.

I found my voice.
I reclaimed my name.
I remembered who I was.

And I came back stronger, not perfect, but whole! A Joy Activated Wellness are all about you healing from the inside out, if you need this be sure to DM "Joy" and I will reach out on our up coming programs.

Don’t Dread the Weekend, Design It!

Hey joy Seekers, today I want to share something close to my heart...

Too many incredible women slide into the weekend feeling exhausted, only to spend it catching up on chores, overcommitting, or crashing from the chaos of the week. Then Sunday hits and that looming Monday anxiety creeps in. Sound familiar?

But it doesn’t have to be this way.

You can look forward to your weekends.
You can feel alive, not drained.
You can create a rhythm that restores you.

At our past event I shared about the danger of having only one thing you are pouring into when it comes to your life wheel (I will.share more on this in future posts). We spoke about balance, making intentional steps to design our lives to fill our souls, sparks & joy!

One of the things I have seen that can help you balance your life is to pay attention to how you design and set up your weekends. Think through how you can have life giving weekends!

A quiet morning walk?
Coffee with soul-nourishing friends?
Intentional rest, reflection, and movement?
A Sunday ritual that grounds you?

What does it take for your weekend to fill up your cup? This weekend, ask yourself:

1. What would rejuvenate me?
2. What rhythm would allow me to flow into next week with peace and power?

Then go create it!

So what will you be doing this weekend?
