Welcome to the Joy Lab.
This is a space where play is sacred, creativity and community are healing, and you get to be fully, messily, wonderfully you.
This is a place for us.
Joy Lab is more than a ceramic studio. More than a coaching space. For some, it might be a rebellion, for others might be an active choice in prioritizing self-care. For everyone though, it’s a homecoming—for your joy, your creativity, and your sense of belonging.
Whether we’re gathered around the worktable with hands in clay, cracking open clarity in a coaching session, or unplugging at a retreat—this is a space for real connection, not performance or perfection.
Through Joy Lab Ceramics, 1:1 Coaching, and The Joy Model™, I create spaces for women to reconnect with themselves and with each other—where community becomes a mirror, a playground, and a powerful catalyst for transformation.
You are worthy of support. Of joy. Of sisterhood that holds you when you’re messy, and celebrates you when you rise.
Welcome in. I am sooooo glad you are here!
With Joy,
Lina

Gather & Connect
-
Step away from the doom scrolling and into real connection. This is where we come together—screen-free, soul-full, and rooted in tradition.
We gather around tables, around fires, and around stories.
We share meals, wisdom, and the kind of truth-telling that heals.Through women's circles, retreats, and sacred spaces, we honor the traditions of our elders and the deep knowing we carry.
These are not your average get-togethers. They’re invitations to be seen, supported, and softened—without performance or pretense.
Let’s remember what it feels like to belong.
-
Most gatherings take place in Thousand Oaks, California or throughout the greater Los Angeles area—around dining tables or in parks, filled with intention, and always unplugged.
I'm also available to facilitate custom gatherings, circles, and retreats—whether it's a backyard brunch with meaning or a weekend deep dive for your community. Let’s co-create something sacred.
And for those called to explore farther from home, retreats are lovingly hosted around the world—from the cozy coastlines of Denmark to the green hills of Scotland and the wild heart of Australia.
-
I believe every woman deserves access to deep, nourishing spaces for connection—regardless of income.
Some gatherings are completely free or pay-what-you-can, while others—like retreats and private events—are priced to honor the time, energy, and intention that goes into holding them.
My commitment is to:
Be transparent about pricing
Offer sliding-scale and scholarship options when possible
Make sure cost is never the thing that keeps you from showing up
If something calls to your heart but feels out of reach, reach out. Let’s find a way.
