About Us

---

Joan Johnson is the Founder and Executive Director of Reset.Life, a non-profit established in late 2018 to help women “press the reset button on life.” Joan launched a social business at the same time to support the non-profit.  Sunrise on Main Boutique is an upscale women’s resale shop in Green Bay, Wisconsin, where new and  donated fashionable clothing & accessories are sold in the Boutique to help fund Reset.Life, housed in the same building.

With an extensive background in the corporate, public, and non-profit sectors, including work as an educator and organizational development consultant, Joan is passionate about helping women navigate personal and professional change, with an emphasis on building interpersonal connection in the process. 

Joan graced the cover of Green Bay's “You” magazine in 2016 for her work in women’s empowerment and received two awards in 2020: Management Women's Nancy A. Felhofer Leadership Award and the "Spirit of Main Street" Award given by Olde Main Street Inc. Joan has appeared on local media over a dozen times featuring coverage of the social business/nonprofit partnership she launched to serve the "women in the middle" of our community. 

Known for her high energy, engaging leadership style, and compassionate heart, Joan is delighted to have found a way to marry her business experience with her desire to make a difference in the community by creating this unique social enterprise model.

Joan serves on the Board of Directors and Executive Committee of Downtown Green Bay, Inc., a non-profit representing the district where her venture is located.
 

She and her husband Denver have two adult children and live in Suamico, Wisconsin, with their English Cream Doodle, Kozmo! 

Dr. Insha Mir is a physician turned life coach who discovered through her medical practice that physical ailments often are manifestations of deeper, untapped issues in our lives. With a belief that real change occurs only from within, Insha is passionate about helping women understand and believe in themselves, live up to their full potential, and improve their quality of life.  

Having delivered programs and workshops on both sides of the world serving individuals of various ethnicities, ages, and walks of life, Dr. Mir facilitates our Reset Life Circles program, a group life coaching experience held over eight weeks with 5-8 participants. Insha believes that the group format fosters connection and allows women to lift others while lifting themselves.  

Insha received her life coaching certification from CTI and Infinite Possibilities and is committed to ongoing learning to better meet the needs of program participants. Insha’s authentic, engaging style creates energy and openness that leads to personal discovery, learning, and growth. She asks of group participants that they approach the Reset Life Circles experience simply with an open heart and an open mind. One of her favorite quotes is: “Give yourself permission to be a masterpiece and a work in progress, simultaneously!”
