Young Entrepreneur’s Holiday Gift Pick: Hayleigh’s Cherished Charms

Still looking for the perfect gift for someone special? Why not support young entrepreneurs while giving back to a great cause, and getting an awesome gift, all at the same time?

For all of you jewelry lovers, check out Hayleigh’s Cherished Charms founded by twelve-year-old Hayleigh. When she was little and attended a school for hard of hearing and deaf children she noticed that a lot of kids tried to hide their hearing aids behind their hair. Hayleigh decided to design unique and creative charms for her hearing aids to help herself and other children be more confident. She even has a provisional patent on her creations and will have a full patent soon!

Hayleigh and her sisters and also make regular earrings because sometimes a mom or sister who doesn’t have hearing aids or cochlear implants wants to match their child / sister / brother who is wearing the charms. There are also charms for boys and for adults.

10% of the proceeds will go to furthering hearing research and education of the hard of hearing and deaf community. What an awesome way to give back!

Above are the earrings I purchased, the light blue Swarovski Elements charms. You can get your own and support this innovative young entrepreneur at www.hayleighscherishedcharms.com.

Stay tuned for our interview with Hayleigh coming up soon!

Jamie Grace Describing the Making of the Christmas Together Video

My birthday (November 25th) was spent with some great people to make this crazy, fun, quirky music video for “Christmas Together.” It features my mom, dad, big sis Morgan and her hubs Patrick and includes some more of my family and closest friends. We had SO much fun! This video wouldn’t have been possible without everyone taking their holiday week to hang out and do this!;) Thank you! Also to my aunt who catered the party haha, SESAC who sent me an amazing cake and Cynthia whose birthday was the same day but still came.;) LOVE LOVE!!

Singer Katelynne Cox On Pursuing A Passion for Music


Above Katelynne Cox’s music video for her song “Me.”

Seventeen-year-old Katelynne Cox faced bullying growing up, and decided to use music as an outlet to express herself and positive messages. She felt like music was the thing she was born to do, and has gone on to release two CDs. In an interview with Susie Magazine she says, “Singing is my passion. Every day, I go home and pick up the guitar and start singing. I enjoy writing songs, too…”

She encourages young people to pursue their own passions and dreams, and not just following what is popular or chase after fame. She says “I have a song called ‘Fifteen Minutes of Fame.’ Lots of people only sing because they want to be famous.” This is awesome advice – take the time to pursue your unique talents and you will be true to you. Find out more about Katelynne at her site: www.katelynnecox.com
