A Purpose-Driven Journey:
So, how did Choose Joy Creative come to be?
Simple: I listened.
Which doesn’t come naturally to me. I'm not one to take risks. I'm a planner through and through—organized, thoughtful, and always weighing the potential outcomes of every decision. But at the start of 2023, as an alternative to a new year's resolution, I chose a word to guide me. That word was "listen."
The decision to focus on listening wasn't just a casual choice; it was a commitment to tune into God's guidance, to discern His calling and direction for my life. Through the ups and downs of recent years, one truth has become crystal clear: God is in control. Even when I don't understand the reasons behind certain events, I've learned to trust His plan, recognizing that His vision for my life far surpasses any plan I could conceive for myself.
I listened to that inner prompting, taking a leap of faith to establish Choose Joy Creative.
Hi, I’m Jorden, the Founder, Creative Director, and Community Builder of Choose Joy Creative.
In the inception of Choose Joy Creative, I felt a calling to do more than just create marketing content. My mission is rooted in meeting small business owners right where they are, diving into the depths of their unique stories, and serving as their personal storyteller. Beyond business success, my goal is to spread joy, helping business owners who are overwhelmed and burnt out re-find the joy in their business!
Values We Hold Dear:
SERVICE:
We exist to serve you and your brand.
COMMUNICATION:
Open, honest, and joyfully transparent.
COMMUNITY:
Building bridges, one joyful connection
at a time.
JOY:
Spreading happiness is our superpower.
At Choose Joy Creative, we are more than marketers – we are storytellers, dreamers, and champions of joy. Our mission is simple yet profound: to learn, share, and amplify the unique stories of our clients through creative and strategic marketing.
Jorden of Choose Joy Creative is simply amazing. She was recommended to me after I saw her work with another business and asked who they were using. She is well organized, driven, creative and a great collaborator. She really took time to understand my business, develop my brand, discuss goals and help with my social media content (which I really needed help with). She has a well thought out system and it shows. Her work has been the biggest game changer. Now people ask ME who is doing my marketing - that says something! Highly, highly recommend Jorden!
