FROM THE WHEELCHAIR TO THE PODIUM...

 

"In 1985, at the peak of my career in the health field, my entire world turned upside down.  I was diagnosed with cancer - not with one form, but two!  Within 2 weeks, nothing in my life made sense.  By 1989, I found myself 88 pounds, in a wheelchair, with 1 1/2 weeks to live!  That was then...

A leading authority on the subject of how to transform stress of any kind into energy instantly, Dr Joyce assists you in igniting unlimited energy and vitality into your life, regardless of your present level and quality of health and life. She did not come by this knowledge and ability quickly or easily! Dr Joyce learned the hard way, over many years of her life, both personally and professionally. However, after overcoming many of life's hard knocks, including being homeless at 14 on the cold, bleak streets of Toronto, Canada, followed by a 20-year eating disorder that plummeted her weight down to 68 pounds only to eventually tip the scales at 250+ pounds, and then overcoming and conquering a 5-year battle with cancer, today she is a health professional with a PhD in Psychology and Nutrition, and the Founder and CEO of Vibrant Health Academy Unlimited. Dr Joyce has inspired audiences around the world to incorporate these simple strategies into their home offices, their corporate offices, within their home and family situations, in a car, on a bus or train, at the airport, on a plane, or even at one of those way too long - and often boring - business meetings!
