EXCITING NEWS!

HOPE Education Group is now 
Joy Hope Collective, LLC. 


Joy Hope Collective (J.H.C.)
New name, expanded engagement born out of 30 years of work as an educator, coach and consultant. 

Why Joy Hope Collective? Having witnessed and experienced the ongoing challenges to equity that keep us all unwell, I have had to dig deep to chart a path that will support my personal and professional health. Two guideposts I have learned to honor are Joy and Hope: both offer pathways to thriving collectively, compassionately and unapologetically. 
~SO~
HOPE's work will continue to support equity and wellness to Help Other People Excel, by providing engaging, transformative professional development that inspires equity & excellence. 
~AND~
 I am proud to announce the launch of The Joy Anyhow podcast! Joy Anyhow invites us all to explore and expand our capacity for finding and co-creating joy, even when it seems elusive.

I look forward to being in community with you,
Krista Robinson-Lyles

Snowdrop Flower


The Snowdrop flower...beautiful in its simplicity, but also in its ability to thrive. It blooms in winter, amid snow and cold temperatures, making it unique among flowers.

The Snowdrop flower is HOPE's symbol because it represents the ability to persevere towards equity, excellence and wellness for all. It is a perfect physical representation of the core principles that HOPE embodies.  

The joy in my work comes from collaborating with a variety of people and organizations to promote individual and collective growth and development. I support the creation of healthy learning and working environments that transform personal and organizational wellness, and center equity as an inextricable and non-negotiable part of the organizational culture. I look forward to partnering with you.

Why people believe in me


This was a spectacular course! The course material, communication skills, and self reflection tools were effective and well presented. I learned things in this course that I use, not just with students, but in my daily life. I am truly grateful!!
