“The Ugly Duckling”....sexual abuse, childhood trauma, and healing.

"Can You See Me: Women.Leadership.Race"

A powerful and convicting conversation with Dr. JiaJoyce R. Conway of York, PA. Dr. Jia was born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland. She is a graduate of Coppin State University, where she earned her Bachelor’s and Master’s of Science degree in Nursing. She furthered her education at Chatham University in Pittsburgh where she completed her doctorate degree as an advanced practitioner. Dr. Conway knew early in life that she wanted to take care of, help and educate others. Always a nurturer, pursuing a path that combined healthcare, education, mentorship and coaching just came naturally. Education was not only a route to the pursuit of happiness, but it was how she learned to cope. Consuming herself in work and schooling was a means of not having to deal with her pain of loss and sexual abuse. Despite achieving great success in her career; it was not until she had birthed her first child and nearly lost her marriage did the change truly come. It was at these two major turning points in her life that she made the decision to take her life back from pain and push towards purpose. Dr. Conway is the CEO of Changing From the Inside Out Ministries, LLC and The Epitome of a Woman Life Coaching Academy.
