Defining Your Wellness Journey
One Mustard Seed Road, LLC is a wellness coaching and professional development company that centers the experiences of Black women professionals while partnering with organizations across sectors to support sustainable well-being amid high demand, change, and evolving expectations.
Rooted in the belief that well-being should be sustainable not performative, our work takes a human-centered, culturally responsive approach. Through coaching, guided support, curriculum development, workshops, speaking engagements, and facilitated conversations, we support individuals and organizations in moving beyond constant urgency toward clarity, alignment, and endurance.
At One Mustard Seed Road, wellness is not about doing more. It’s about living and leading in ways that preserve your well-being over time.
Meet Joy!
Joy Allison helps professional Black women create sustainable wellness practices to overcome burnout. Joy is a burnout coach and founder of One Mustard Seed Road, LLC, where she helps professional Black women restore their energy and create wellness routines rooted in their real lives, values, and cultural identity.
With over 20 years of leadership in higher education, Joy combines deep expertise with lived experience. She knows firsthand the cost of high achievement, “working twice as hard to receive half the recognition”, exhaustion, feeling unseen, and constantly pushing through. Her own turning point came when a naturopathic doctor asked her, “How’s the quality of your life?” That question sparked a shift and led Joy to redefine success on her own terms.
Now, she helps other Black women do the same through coaching, workshops, and honest conversations that center their wholeness, not just their productivity. Joy also works with universities, nonprofits, and corporate teams to lead discussions on wellness, racial equity, burnout and work-life integration.
Joy is more than a coach, she’s a catalyst for healing, power, and lasting self-care.
