Welcome

Welcome home, co-journers.

I'm glad you're here for another episode.

I'm Dr. Tema, licensed psychologist, ordained minister and sacred artists,

here to help facilitate your journey back home to yourself.

And I am so grateful to introduce to you our next guest,

who actually has been with the podcast

over the years as the singer of our intro and outro, Dr. Joy Jones. Welcome, Joy. Thank you so

much. Let me tell the people about you. Joy and I have been friends for like 30 years. It's just

amazing. We met on the campus of Duke University.

And Dr. Joy Jones is a recording artist, anthropologist, urban farmer, and medical doctor.

She is board certified in family medicine and psychiatry, as well as functional medicine and

lifestyle medicine. She is also the CEO and founder

of Whole Village Health, which you should follow on Instagram. A global wellness firm deeply rooted

in liberation medicine. Locally, she works with individuals impacted by the correctional system, both incarcerated and in the community, to help them redefined and achieve personal liberation.

Globally, she has traveled to all seven continents and can often be found leading medical missions to communities most in need.

In her leisure, she can be found in the community organizing, in the studio creating, or in her garden, cultivating, or doing stand-up comedy.

In all her work, her personal goal is to help all who she comes in contact become healthier, happier, and more whole.

I love it, Joy.

I love it.

Healthy, happier, and more whole.

That's it.
