YAY! New Super Fun Project I've Been Working On To Premiere On The FOOD NETWORK! Name & Dates- TBA






Excited to be back from the FROZEN state of NYC where I had SO much crazy fun working on a new Food Network project with some pretty adorable people! I mean, Joey Fatone is wayyyyy too adorable for his own good & an awesome, energetic talent and one of my TV Gods from childhood, Mr. Marc Summers.. YES! Of Double Dare, Family Double Dare, Unwrapped, Restaurant Impossible and on and on.. I played it cool until Marc & I were seated together and I just blurted out. " I know I should act "cool" while we work but.. I FREAKIN' LOVE YOU MAN!!!"  Then I went on to tell him what a weird kid I was who turned into a weird teenager obsessed with TV & talk showsand how the only 2 people in TV I ever wanted to meet were my mama, OPRAH & HIM! I told him how obsessed I was with the fact that he made feel good & FUN TV! Everything he created always left viewers feeling good, happy, smarter.. I think I needed that often when I was a kid because when you grow up a Latchkey kid, you search for things or people who make you feel safe, happy & comforted. At least I did & TV did that for me.. 

Anyways.. Another cool experience & some more cool new friends I've made along the way.
Whatever it is you wanna do with yourself, your life, your story.. DO IT! 

You'll see it when YOU believe it & not the other way around.. That whole thing about " I'll believe it when I see it" has always been a little backwards, I mean, helloooo didn't anyone ever read
 "THE SECRET?" 

LIVE YO' LIFE FEARLESSLY FRIENDS! THE BEST IS YET TO COME.. #BELIEVEIT
XO,

Such A Super Fun Morning With Billy Bush & Kit Hoover On Access Hollywood Live on NBC!



Hi Friends! 
Ya know! It's simply so awesome to get to experience so many new & wonderful opportunities all because of the fact that several years ago while at my rock bottom, I decided to start a really cool business & decided all I wanted to do with my life was make people HAPPY, bring people JOY and teach them how to CELEBRATE & PARTY! 

It's true what they say, when you find your passion and you pursue it to the fullest, you can make some pretty spectacular things happen for yourself and your life! I believe in being bold, for thinking wayyyyyy out of the box, for leading and trailblazing and making your mark, whatever that mark may be anyway.

I call myself president of "the tortured souls" club and my friends are all members too! Basically, I realize that every single one of us has a story that often comes with insecurities, pain, failures, regrets etc… It's all the hard stuff we go through however, you CAN move forward, you CAN pull your life and yourself out of this place and make really incredible stuff unfold for yourself. You simply have to want to. You need to believe it and subscribe to the idea that you too- are totally worthy of kicking ass and being invited to join Billy & Kit on Access Hollywood Live some day too! Ok.. so maybe the Access Hollywood part of this story isn't your thing, but whatever is your thing.. Chase it, create it, do it, talk about it and watch yourself BECOME IT! 

Happy Holidays Friends! 
Xo, Jackie

Stuff Just Keeps Happening! Thank you OC Metro Magazine! Honored To Be One Of Your 25 Hot List Awards Recipients os 2013!

I grew up in the OC causing creative havoc, navigating my youth on my pink banana seat bike and even after running away to NYC with $400 bucks at the age of 20, I eventually ended up coming back HOME! Orange County is everything familiar to me and I am simply honored to be one of this years 25 Hot List Awards recipients. When I realized that former astronauts, HUGE Ceo's, Nobel Peace Prize Winners & Super Genius's received this honor too I thought... HUH??? You sure this is for me????  I kinda feel like for the last 6 years I have been in total machine mode. I was broke in a gross apartment with my husband " the super sweet & gorgeous engineer" who lost his job and I had been fired by my mentor from a job I LOVED ( though I deserved it).  The economy tanked and I simply had an idea.. " I wanted to make people HAPPY!" Starting this business out of my garage while PREGNANT & BROKE ( surprise!!!) has been the best thing to ever happen to me! It's taught me tremendously and although I admit, I've always been an entrepreneur at heart and had dreams of running my own company & being a talk show host someday, I didn't quite realize the kind of impact my business would make on others! WE ARE IN THE HAPPINESS BUSINESS! Do you know how great it feels to have created a brand out of NOTHING and with NOTHING and turned it into SOMETHING that is all about JOY! JOY! SWEET JOY!!! This story will continue for many years to come, that I am SURE of! At this moment,  I am simply really touched by this tremendous honor and super excited about what's ahead of us.. The Best Is Yet To Come...

Skies The Limit For Every Single One Of Us.. BELIEVE IT

XoXo, Jackie
