[ad_1] Jinich has dedicated her culinary career to understanding, honoring, and celebrating two cultures that hold profound sentiment to her: Mexico, where she was born, and the United States, where she lives. And the industry has recognized her commitment and unique point of view, as she's won an esteemed James Beard Foundation award. While Jinich's passion is in the kitchen, there's no denying that her cooking comes from a place of wanting to make a greater impact by showcasing the vibrant people and culture of Mexico. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that her first career was actually inspired by her drive for strengthening democratic institutions in Mexico. Jinich worked as a political analyst at a think tank in D.C. after earning a master's degree in Latin American studies from Georgetown University. Listen to the latest episode of Second Life to hear how Jinich shifted from working in politics to building a burgeoning culinary empire without losing sight of her greater purpose.  Next: Meet Saskia van Gendt: Environmental Scientist & Rothy's Head of Sustainability [ad_2] Source link

[ad_1] Garcelle Beauvais is an absolute powerhouse. After immigrating to the United States from Haiti at just 7 years old, she sought an early career as a fashion model in New York. Her career in modeling eventually led to her first significant career pivot to acting, where she's had roles in notable TV shows and films such as Coming to America, The Jaime Foxx Show, NYPD Blue, and Curb Your Enthusiasm. Beauvais undoubtedly paved her way through Hollywood for three decades, making a name for herself in the industry. Today, Beauvais is still in front of the camera, but in a different light. She is on the hit Bravo show The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, serving as the first-ever Black castmate of this iteration of the franchise. Beauvais's presence on the show has revealed her powerful, determined attitude and incredibly wise soul. Yet she hasn't stopped there. Beauvais also joined the award-winning daytime talk show The Real during season seven, and she will co-host until its eighth and final season ends this month. Aside from her time in the Hollywood spotlight, Beauvais has added another accolade to her impressive repertoire: She has evolved her career as an author. Her first foray into writing was with her I Am series of children's books released in 2013 that address identity issues relevant to many children today and are a testament to her vocation as a mother. On April 12, she released her highly anticipated memoir, Love Me as I Am, detailing her life from Haiti to Hollywood and all of the emotions in between. [ad_2] Source link

[ad_1] If you grew up in the '90s, chances are you are very familiar with the Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Jewel. In 1995, she released her twelve-times platinum-selling debut album, Pieces of You, with hits like Who Will Save Your Soul and You Were Meant For Me — instantly becoming a musical icon of the generation. She then went on to have a multi-decade career with twelve studio albums, for which she's sold over 30 million copies worldwide, that span over a range of genres like Folk, Pop, Country, Children's, and more. And now, she is gearing up to debut her first studio album in seven years on April 15th, Freewheelin' Woman, which has become highly anticipated. Throughout the years, Jewel has added a few more accolades to her name, including New York Times bestselling author and mental health advocate. Her path to success as a singer-songwriter was not always glamorous; it brought an obstacle course of challenging moments, leading her to find solutions and tools to overcome them. Jewel found her footing through mindfulness, meditation, and an awareness of mental health at a young age, and learned to call on that toolkit throughout navigating the extreme highs and lows that came her way. Beyond her work or stardom, she's crystal clean that her first priority be becoming the best version of herself. "I don't want my music to be my best work of art, I want to be my best work of art, I want my life to be my best work of art," she admits on Second Life.  [ad_2] Source link
