Janel Dyan has accomplished something remarkable — she has proven that when you live your life story, your style has the power to connect, inspire and engage. In my work with Janel, I’ve discovered that we can use the lessons of the JD Methodology to serve not just ourselves and our companies, but to go ‘Beyond Us’ to become a movement of women empowering, supporting and investing in other women. Janel challenges you to be the woman who remembers to look back, reach down, pull another woman up and give her the permission to be powerful in her own light.

Established in 2017, BEYOND US ™ provides opportunities to build confidence in women through a platform for sharing clothes with other women who are ready to take the next step in their professional lives. JD strives to ensure that, in the eyes of our clients and our Beyond Us recipients, the pieces are not viewed as charity. These are simply clothes and accessories that have served to tell one woman's story and are now being repurposed to tell a new story for a different woman because nothing is lost and so much is gained.
“It’s not about the clothes, it's about the women who wear them and the stories they tell - for stories have the power to connect us, inspire us and, above all else, remind us that we are not alone.” xx-j
