Thursday, June 5, 2025 - 26 minutes

Imagine walking around with a name like “Joy”… and feeling anything but.

This week on The Shepherd at Work, Krystal Parker sits down with Joy Dawson, founder of Joyfully Planned Firm and a powerhouse Kingdom Connection Strategist who knows firsthand what it’s like to build success on the outside while feeling drained on the inside.

In this transparent and transformative episode, Joy opens up about:

  • Her pivot from events to enterprise and what broke her on the inside

  • The cost of striving in the world’s system—and the shift to Kingdom purpose

  • How she redefined success and actually found joy (yes, the real kind)

  • Why meaningful business connections are more than just networking—they’re ministry

With wisdom forged through fire, Joy shares how she moved from burnout and confusion to a purpose-driven life of connection, clarity, and calling. Whether you're building a business, navigating a transition, or searching for joy in your own journey—this episode is for you.
