With a diverse background as an educator, loving mom, devoted partner, Korean transracial adoptee, and aspiring baker, Joy brings a unique perspective to our show.

Her journey began when she was adopted from Seoul, Korea, by her caring parents, Clifton and Isabel Stuewe, at just 10 months old.

Join us to explore the world through Joy's empathetic lens and discover the power of her inspiring story.
