About

Daira Avery TraynoR

Daira aka “The Joy Girl” coined the phrase after a lengthy pursuit to discover, define, and share insights with others on what living with joy really looks like. After a seemingly “picture perfect” life fell apart, she realized that money won’t create lasting smiles, vacations are only temporary escapes, and joy is not reserved for some, but anyone who is willing to seek it out. Daira’s stories explore the good, the bad, and the hard stuff in life, leaving you with an easy roadmap to make every day meaningful.

As the host of the podcast “Joy Girl,” Daira continues her mission of spreading joy and laughter. In each episode, she dives into “real talk” with comedians from all walks of life, delving into their unique perspectives on laughter and joy. Through these engaging and insightful conversations, Daira uncovers the power of humor in bringing people together, healing wounds, and finding joy even in the midst of adversity.
