Monday Motivation: Friends Promote Friends

Whenever a friend of mine has accomplished something small or great, I feel like that one super loud person in the crowd with a handmade sign, wildly jumping up and down, screaming, “That’s my girl! Way to goooo!” I get so excited and happy to see them on their way to success and surpassing milestones. 

One of them is my friend of eight years, Jessica Linehan, founder and artist of Bobbi J jewelry. If you’ve been reading through my many blog posts, you’ve probably seen her name, face, and jewels about a dozen times. Less than 24 hrs ago, she just dropped an uh-maaazzzinnnggg video directed and created by our friend, Alisia Perez, who also directed my ‘About Me’ video as well. I can’t stress enough, how proud I am to be their friend and to be able to surround myself with such awesome, original creativity that is nothing less than DOPE.

Mini Bio: Xiomara

                           

A couple months ago, I was looking at my blog for areas to update. I concluded that my ‘About’ page was a little…blah. Sure, a picture can say 1,000 words and a short blurb about myself provided another dimension, but it wasn’t enough. I wanted to do something different and creative that would really represent myself. 

During that time, I came across an amazing music video that my friend, Jessica Linehan, owner of Bobbi J, was featured in. Coincidentally, our friend, Alisia Perez, actually directed, cut and edited the video herself. After the video had ended, I knew that I wanted to create a ‘mini bio’ for my ‘About’ page and I wanted Alisia to direct it. 

So here it is! Click ‘Play’ and enjoy.
