Ep83: Living Life with No Excuses w/ Georgina 'Joy' Dukes of JoyofRomeo.com New Geechee Podcast

    • Society & Culture

Today is another episode too many years in the making from someone who was a New Geechee FIRST! This young lady was the first person to contribute to the New Geechee blog with “Healing the Health of Southern Hospitality”, back in May of 2018! 

Meet boss mom extraordinaire Georgina Dukes, affectionately known as JOY, who is showing the world how to balance motherhood, career, and self care! 

Born and raised in the great town of Monetta, SC, Joy learned early and quickly about how to survive the negativity of the world and the value of being a member of the community! Her resilience story begins as early as elementary school and only continues to strengthen when college puts her face to face with events that would change her life, forever! 

An incredible mom of a brilliant and fearless black boy named Romeo, her ultimate goal in life is to HEAL, and she is doing just that through her blog JoyofRomeo.com, which has gone VIRAL this year due to a entry titled “ When My Beautiful Black Boy Grows from Cute to a Threat”, her new collaboration with AllMomDoes blog,  her full time career working with UniteUS, and her new business JoyofRomeo Transportation, which employs those in her hometown of Monetta, SC.

Talk about a boss? 

All of this before the age of 30! I'm partial to Joy’s illumination because she’s a Delta, more specifically my neo, who I saw outwork us all and live out the “No excuses mentality”, and she’s a Taurus, so there’s that! 

Oh Joy--- you make it all look easy but i know that you worked for every single thing you earned and its been beautiful watching you continue to grow these last 10 years!
