Spotlight of the Month- Jamie

Spotlight of the Month- Jamie

     It's finally here – summer! The kids are out of school, pool floats are dusted off, and the air is full of the sweet scent of roses in full bloom. June, after all, is their official month! As a self-proclaimed rose fanatic (just peek at my phone's overflowing photo gallery, haha!), I can't help but smile every time I see these beauties. But enough about my floral obsession – this month's Creatively Linked spotlight shines on someone just as vibrant: my amazing friend, Jamie.  We met back in 2015 at a Christian retreat called Elevate Remix, where we bunked together with a group of other women.  Her infectious humor and genuine kindness were impossible to miss. In fact, she's guaranteed to have you laughing within minutes of meeting her. Friends know and love Jamie for her zest for life and her ability to light up any room. She's the sunshine on a cloudy day, the cheerleader you never knew you needed.  I can't wait to share Jamie's story with you, get ready to be inspired by her!

  • What is your creative talent? "I am a licensed cosmetologist and before it became a career it was a hobby I really enjoyed. I have always loved doing my friends hair & makeup for certain events and birthdays. Honestly, seeing their reactions always brought joy to my little heart."

  • Tell us a little bit about your business. "I’m a licensed cosmetologist & I specialize in makeup, but I do: full/soft glam, makeup 1on1 sessions, eyebrow services (lamination, wax and tinting), eyelash lifts, hair services & weddings."  Make sure you give her a follow and book her for anything beauty related! @StylesByAlyse.
  • What are some of your favorite accomplishments?  "I would have to say some of my favorite accomplishments are the big events I got to be a part of. I was featured on a “DIY to die for” AZ tv program where I did easy Halloween makeup tutorials. One other great accomplishment was doing makeup for an Inaugural Women’s Leadership Conference & Expo." 

  • What are some fun facts about you? "I am obsessed with Christmas, I love making tik tok videos (some fun, and a lot of makeup ones), I’m a middle child and have two beautiful sisters and I love having small concerts in my house with an audience of zero. I just love to enjoy life while I’m still around." 

  • What advice would you give the younger generation? "If I can say one thing to this younger generation it would be don’t always chase money. Money can bring opportunities yes, but it can’t buy you happiness. There is so much more to life and find truly makes you happy and genuinely brings you joy.  I feel that sometimes people let money or the lack of stop you from chasing your dreams. Take that dream & mustard seed of faith and give it your all."

 


    Jamie's talent is undeniable. Every time I see her work, the women in her videos radiate confidence and beauty. Seeing the confidence Jamie brings out in her clients makes me want to experience it myself. A glam session is definitely in order!  But what truly sets Jamie apart is her genuine passion and amazing personality. She embodies the message she shares – chasing happiness is more fulfilling than chasing money. Her advice resonates deeply – we should all savor the present moment and appreciate the joy of being alive. Jamie's dedication to making others feel beautiful goes beyond her skills; it's a reflection of her kind heart.  I am truly honored to call her a friend and I am so inspired by her outlook on life.  Jamie, you are definitely Creatively Linked.
