The WildJoy story began with a sunset drive on Mount Lemmon — orange tones in the sky, cool crisp air, and the Tucson skyline in the distance. On Mount Lemmon, co-founder and CEO Lacy Cain drove this scenic route to replace her chaotic, busy life in college with a couple hours of pure joy. You know that feeling when the wind is in your hair, the music is loud, and it’s as if nothing else matters in those moments because you are totally immersed in the present and your surroundings. WildJoy was created to help people remember how important moments just like these are in life on this crazy planet.
In the United States, 1 in 5 people are approximated to be dealing with the pain of a mental health illness. Both Lacy and her co-founder and CTO Yaya Alanis have lived with and pushed through their struggles with depression and anxiety. Often we are told to pursue what makes us happy or to constantly be in pursuit of happiness. Happiness can only be defined by the individual and is certainly impossible to impose on anyone else’s life. However, joy is different. Joy is felt in little moments like playing with your dog, having that first sip of coffee in the morning, or reliving the memories of spring break with your best friends. Joy sparks a feeling that can lead to more happiness overall.
Lacy and Yaya were on a mission to figure out a way to bring more joy to people. Their goal was to create an outlet for people seeking out a better, more fulfilled life through experiencing with the community and world around them. They decided to design a space where people can browse online a wide variety of experiences, both for fun and for the community, that they could partake in to feel that joy.
This is where WildJoy came from. Two women determined to make the world a better place by creating a platform that could provide opportunities for experiences that could result in that unparalleled feeling of joy that Lacy felt on Mount Lemmon. WildJoy is growing every day, and we hope to inspire you and invite you to experience with us.
