Aim
To launch JoyWarrior — sensory-friendly, non-binary strengthwear made for lifters who want soft, strong, and inclusive gymwear.
Hi, I’m Mandy Williams — a Masters-level powerlifter, founder of JoyWarrior, and proud member of the neurodivergent community.
For years, I’ve trained in gymwear that looked good but felt awful — scratchy seams, stiff fabrics, tags that distract, and sizing that didn’t include everyone. As an autistic lifter, I wanted something better.
So I created JoyWarrior — strengthwear that’s soft, sensory-friendly, and designed for every body.
After months of fabric testing, pattern trials, and sample adjustments, I found the perfect combination with CanvasWhisper: ultra-soft, durable fabrics that move with your body and feel like a second skin.
The first product is ready — our JoyWarrior crop top, made from high-quality breathable fabric that’s tag-free, smooth, and empowering. Now, I just need your help to fund the first production run of 100 pieces.
This launch will allow JoyWarrior to:
Produce the first 100 crop tops
Gather community feedback for future sensory-friendly designs
Every pledge helps bring inclusive, comfortable strengthwear to life — and supports a neurodivergent athlete building something truly different.
