Guide for Teachers & Speakers:

What The Joy Collective Is

The Joy Collective is different by design — not another place to scroll, consume, or keep up with more content.

It's a place for women to pause, check in with themselves, and take what they need for the day: a mindset reset, a little inspiration, a simple wellness practice, or one small action that helps them feel clear and connected. Then they go live their life.

Less scrolling. More living. Less consuming. More connecting. Less pressure. More joy.

The goal isn't to keep members online. It's to help them live better offline.

The Five Pillars of Joy

Every month, every guest, and every piece of content lives inside one of five pillars. They're the winds that move our members — and joy is where they carry them.

01 · Mindset — Regulate Mindfulness, meditation & nervous system regulation. "Quiet the noise. Hear yourself again."

02 · Inspiration — Learn Learning from teachers & speakers our members trust. "Learn from the people who light you up."

03 · Health — Nourish & Move Nourishment, movement, sleep & purity. "Nourish your body. Move with joy. Rest without guilt."

04 · Nature — Ground A return to the earth and its elements. "Nature is not a luxury. It is a return."

05 · Community — Belong Friendship, connection, presence & intentional living. "The armor is down. You are held."

How the Year Is Themed

Each month carries one theme and one anchor pillar. There are four ways to get involved:

1. Guest Speaker — teach a live class One live session tied to that month's theme. Example: a yoga class, a gardening class.

2. Host a Monthly Theme — lead a series across the whole month You own a theme for the month, delivered in parts. Example: a book club, 30 Days of Pranayama, a skincare regimen.

3. Seasonal Challenge — lead a longer-format challenge Built around one pillar and designed to run over a longer stretch of time — a season, not a single month. Example: astrology, organize your closet or pantry, or something else in your own area of expertise.

4. Library-Only — record something that never has to be live Prefer not to teach live? Record a class or series just for the library. And to be clear: every option above can also be recorded live and dropped permanently into the library — nothing is ever live-only.

How We Pay Our Teachers

Live sessions — Guest Speaker, Monthly Theme, and Seasonal Challenge Leader — are paid a flat session fee, agreed before you teach:

• Guest Speaker (single session): $200 to start

• Host a Monthly Theme (multi-part, across the month): $300–$500

• Seasonal Challenge Leader (runs a full season): $500–$1200

The goal was never to keep you online. It's to help you live better offline.
