About Impending Joy
Impending Joy began as a reminder that even in the darkest moments, joy is inevitable. I wrote the phrase impending joy in my journal during treatment, and it became something I returned to again and again — a promise that what I was feeling was temporary, and that light always finds its way back. Those words helped me keep going, seek treatment, and put my whole heart into healing.
After coming through my own season of rebuilding, I wanted to create what I once needed: small symbols of hope to share with others on their own paths.
Each piece is crafted with intention and care, from minimalist gold jewelry to meaningful apparel designed to reflect growth, connection and belonging. I choose high-quality, comforting materials so every item feels supportive, durable and truly worth holding onto.
What started as something personal has grown into a way to reach others — to remind them they’re not alone, and that even a small symbol can offer recognition, comfort or encouragement when it’s needed most.
Impending Joy is a mental-health-centered brand creating symbolic, intentional designs rooted in healing, recovery and belonging. These pieces are made to support your own journey and to be shared as gentle reminders to others that they are not alone.
Healing deserves presence and visibility.
When you wear a symbol of your own healing journey, you carry the feeling of impending joy with you and invite connection, compassion and community wherever you go.
A portion of every purchase is shared with mental-health organizations doing meaningful work in healing and suicide-prevention spaces. It’s one small way this brand gives back to the communities that inspired it — supporting access, advocacy, and the kind of resources that help enrich and save lives.
Heal out loud. Remind someone they’re not alone.
That’s the heart of Impending Joy.
Thank you for supporting a queer-owned small business and for helping build a community grounded in care, acceptance and connection. Your presence here truly matters.
