There is joy in the journey!
My life has held seasons of loss of parents, close friends, and spiritual mentors, as well as seasons of wilderness…oh the wilderness! But God has shown me that joy is not the absence of pain; it is His presence in the middle of it, at all times!
I write because I want you to know this joy too, the joy that steadies you when life sways, that whispers “You are loved, you are held, and you are never alone.”
Your joy journey begins here!

Meet Your Joy Ambassador
I’m Tina “T.L.” Coleman your Joy Ambassador, writer, Christian Lifestyle Coach, and encourager. I’ve spent over 35 years helping people find hope, healing, and courage through thousands of conversations, from the front lines of corporate to crisis calls.
I’ve worked in conflict resolution and customer advocacy for companies such as Toyota North America, Macy’s, Target, and Prudential. I’ve walked alongside people who have felt unseen, unheard, and overwhelmed due to those events and situations that happen in life that are either inside or outside of their control.
What I’ve learned is that most pain is deeper than the presenting problem and what people really need is to be heard, encouraged, and reminded of hope. God has given me the gift of exhortation and I’ve embraced it as my ministry and calling.
I know what it is to walk through personal loss, financial strain, divorce, and rebuilding and I know what it is to find joy again. Proverbs 3:5–6 is my life verse: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.”
Today, I live in beautiful Florida with my husband Bill, where I enjoy my church community, walks by the marina, live music, good books, and spa days. And here, I get to walk with you as we rediscover joy, God’s way!
Thank you for joining me in this journey.
