Devon Johnson is a national board certified health and wellness coach. She holds a master’s degree in public health from Emory University specializing in Behavioral Science and Maternal and Child Health. Prior to Emory, Devon attended Spelman College where she received her Bachelor of Arts in Comparative Women’s Studies with a minor in Public Health. 

Devon’s journey as a health and wellness coach began after training 25+ years as a dancer. During that time, she discovered how creating movement in the body could improve physical, mental, and emotional health. This developed her passion for using an integrative approach to health and wellness and motivating others to set and achieve their goals. Her brand name, Defining My Joy, was created to remind others, wellness is not about obtaining something out of reach, rather looking inward to uncover what makes us our best selves. Devon believes defining the “Why” behind achieving goals is essential to developing the purpose, focus, and motivation needed to achieve goals. She uses additional techniques including positive psychology and motivational interviewing to guide her clients through behavior changes that lead to their optimal health.
