Through The Successful Woman movement, Joanna is on a mission to help women understand that they can create a life of freedom by aligning their businesses and careers with their dream lifestyle and unique way they contribute to the world. The key to this alignment is learning the right skills for success and how to create a master plan to live your life by.
“Anything is possible when you believe it. However, to realize this, a woman must understand the creative process of the mind and how to master the process of reinvention at the core of transformation. The ultimate success as a woman is to become the woman you are destined to be. When a woman lives with this conviction of purpose, the world around her changes, and what she chooses to do does too,” shares Joanna James.

The movement is on track to improve the lives of 1 million women and their families by 2027.
