WELCOME TO THE JOY LAB, where burned-out clinicians + educators come to rediscover creativity, curiosity, + connection.

👋 Hi!! I’m Dr. Angelyn Franks, SLPD, CCC-SLP — a type B-minus speech-language pathologist, mom, + recovering people-pleaser with ADHD.

After years of chasing balance + burning out in the process, I finally realized that JOY isn’t a reward for doing everything right, it's the spark that keeps us going.

The Joy Lab is a free, low-pressure space to start experimenting with small shifts that make work + life feel lighter, calmer, + more you.

💖 INSIDE, YOU'LL FIND:
✨ Play Week Replays + Tools — fun, bite-sized sessions + prompts from our community event exploring play as self-care and burnout recovery
🎙️ Podcast Episodes — honest chats from the Chill, SLP Podcast with cohost Amy Z.
💡 AI Reflection Prompts — gentle journaling scripts to help you process, reflect, and realign
☕ COMING SOON Community Coffee Chats — quick calls to connect together as a community
