Joan’s story contradicts the saying that you are a product of your upbringing and environment. She used her pain as a catalyst to help others who haven’t fully claimed their health after suffering abuse.

She shared, “I feel it is part of my journey to assist others who have dealt with some form of trauma to heal from their painful past. It is my fervent hope that those who feel they have lost their voice along the way will realize that there is a better way of life awaiting them at the end of the dark tunnel of abuse. Our life is waiting for us to step into our brilliance; all we have to do is say ‘YES’.”

Joan Van Eyll is a true inspiration. She is someone who turned a horrific upbringing into a mission of compassion and hope for others suffering abuse.

She survived and now successfully gives back by empowering others. Her work gives back to her with each person she is able to help.

Joan described, “Seeing the look in someone’s face when they really feel and understand on such a deep level their true value and worth and how incredibly beautiful they are, they realize they are so much more powerful then what they were led to believe.”
