My first blog post on my first ever website that I have designed! It feels amazing! I always knew I needed a way to reach others in an "on demand" type of way. A, "when I have time" to check back type of way. For now, this is my solution! Blogging. Let's jump in headfirst! So Jamming Gems what is it, how did it start, why did I choose to go with it, and where are we headed?
I am Julina, your well-rounded SAHMama. I believe homemade is heartmade and everyone has a unique gift to bring to the world. My job is to teach and bring those gifts to light. I like doing this though a homemade style because, well, it gives you an opportunity to relax and feel at home. A chance to make mistakes and know that you are still safe regardless. A way to invite yourself to a new mindset, a new opportunity, a new vision, or maybe a new goal. Each person has strengths and weaknesses. I prefer to see the beauty and strength in you! While that is true, I also believe our shadows bring light to the surface in a new way, if you are willing to face that darkness. It's totally cool if not though. Okay I could keep rambling, but we have lots to cover!
Jamming Gems started when I started building a team in my network marketing business with Mary Kay. I love Jamming because it reminds me reggae which is such a freeing genre. and Gems because well... if you know me you know I love anything that glitters! Plus, Jamming starts with J, the best letter of the alphabet, and gem has the beginning sound of J, and well my name is Julina so there's that. It all fit perfectly. You could even go as far as the history of gemstones and see their unique beauty, their rugged perfection, and their hidden power of confidence. They are the true authentic beauty. They are confident in nature and don't need anyone's approval because they already know their worth even when they are covered in dirt 10 ft. below the surface. They are Gems. And that is also YOU. When you bring the freeing jamming spirit and the unique authentic beauty, you get a package like no other. You get YOU. So, when someone joined my team, they didn't just join any Mary Kay team, they joined mine... and while I didn't know it then, it would set me up for success now and it would evolve into this beautiful journey. That is a little depth into why I chose the name Jamming Gems but how did it become my brand and what does that entail?
So for the last 10 years I have been teaching beauty and glamour tips and tricks to women. I have been supporting their beauty journey through skincare and glamour education. I still do that today! I have found so many amazing gems out there I lost count. Some women have stayed in my life and some women found their own path. Either way the experience was worth it! While I was doing that on the side, being a Mary Kay beauty consultant, I was also teaching elementary special education. I was the case manager, supervisor, teacher, organizer, meeting facilitator, lesson planner, you name it! Whatever needed to be done, I did my best. I taught sooo many amazing children and helped them see their gifts. Behavior students were always my most challenging students, but some of my star students too. I loved being able to help children go from meltdown to safe and being willing to learn. That became my specialty in the field of special education. So much to the point that I almost piloted a Kindergarten-2nd grade behavior "program". But a large pandemic threw me on another course. A course towards motherhood. You can imagine the toolbox I started growing in the last 10 years! These tools are my motivation and inspiration to help others. These tools are what have started defining "Jamming Gems Brand". Fast forward to now. I am currently a stay-at-home mom of one beautiful girl. Everything I could have dreamed; she is that and more. Educating her is by far the best job I could ever do, but I want more. I want to educate more. So, I developed 3 pillars of what Jamming Gems stands for. 1. Beauty. 2. Education. 3. Training/Coaching.
On one side I teach women how to set up easy skincare routines that fit their budget, their style, and their skin. If they need extra support in glamour tips and techniques, I do that too. I also teach women how to live a more authentic, beautiful, and confident life starting from the inside out, in an easy manageable way that you can do starting right now! It's called the ABC's to 2023! On the other side I tutor children K-6 grade in reading and writing both in person and virtually. I create educational videos for parents, teachers, and even students, to help them achieve success in their learning. And finally, if you want to join my team or get coached by me, I have an area for training. I will teach you how to run a Mary Kay business for free! When you join my team, you become part of a pink bubble with the most amazing women you could ever be surrounded by. You are in a business for yourself, but never by yourself. You can also get coaching or sign up your child for tutoring services. Check out my education and beauty tabs for more info!
I knew I had so many great ideas and so many irons in the fire, it was hard to decide if I should focus on just one, or all, or none of them! I chose to integrate them which is how and why I chose to start the Jamming Gem Brand. I do have various items to purchase, but my store is not set up currently so I am working on that. Stay tuned. For now, you can catch me on YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and Tik Tok. Short videos are my JAM! Moving forward you can see more vidoes from me, more education, more newsletters, and more fun headed your way. I have some bigger visions, but I'm not ready to share those yet. For now, this is what you get. I hope to see you in the comments, or maybe send me a message. A stranger is a friend you haven't met yet. The world needs YOU to be the Jamming Gem you are! Step up my friend, the view is beautiful.
