We had the good fortune of connecting with Jessica A. Ross and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Jessica A., as a parent, what do you feel is the most meaningful thing you’ve done for them?
Being a parent is a huge responsibility and I take it very seriously. As a parent, the most important thing that I have done to impact my child lately is starting homeschooling. I realized that the charter school he was going to wasn’t teaching to his ability but rather his age. I saw how my son’s boredom in class started moving into frustration and his interest in going to school decreased day by day. So, I took the matter into my own hands and started homeschooling him through Momtisoary School. It has been a wonderful and fulfilling journey so far, and I am glad that I am able to teach my son to be a lifelong learner.

For me, teaching my son is not just about imparting knowledge, it’s about fostering curiosity and creating a learning environment that is not only challenging but also fun. I create my curriculum and use the resources I find to support an education environment that is based on his interests and abilities. Every child deserves to have an education that caters to their needs and inspires them to seek new knowledge to keep their minds engaged and excited about the world they are blessed to live in!

Through my company JAMGOODLIVING, I emphasize the fact that life is so JAMGOOD with products, services, and events that uplift personal power and facilitate systematic perspective shifts. If I am willing to help my clients find options and solutions that best fit the life they want, I can definitely do the same for my most precious seed, my son. Being a parent is an incredibly rewarding experience, and I am grateful for every moment that I get to spend with my child, teaching him and watching him grow.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?

Hello there! I am a Creative Consultant through my company JAMGOODLIVING, and I believe that our lives are our ART. As a creative consultant, one of my jobs is to see the creative kid in my clients and help them turn their dreams into a business reality. My art is to keep perspectives positive while I advise clients on creative ways to systemize success. I truly believe that everything we put out into the world is our part of a conversation and the art we share with the world.

What sets me apart from others is my over 10 years of experience in event curation, film, and TV show production, facilitating, speaking, and media training. I have also helped many clients monetize their ideas to create multiple streams of income and create strategic partnerships, which adds to the art of business that JAMGOODLIVING can provide.

I’m most excited about the new JAMGOODLIVING events and workshops that we’re holding at McPhail Studios in Peachtree Corners GA. We’re creating a Speaking with Confidence series of workshops to help you present your business and who you are to the world with more confidence and clarity. This event series will have on-stage practice with live recordings so you can track your progress. I truly believe that attention is the new currency, and everyone will get their 15 minutes of fame. Being able to speak up for your business and the solutions you have to offer is essential, and I’m thrilled to help you achieve that.

Let me tell you a little bit about my journey and the brand I created. JAMGOODLIVING is all about supporting those who need a creative boost or a change in their life. As an entrepreneur myself, I know how overwhelming it can be to wear so many hats, which is why my mind is wired to help others think differently and approach their goals in an out-of-the-box way.

Now, it hasn’t been all smooth sailing for JAMGOODLIVING. One of the biggest challenges we’ve faced is figuring out who we serve and making sure the right clients know we’re here to help. But let me tell you, we’re a lifestyle and wellness company that’s all about providing solutions for the person behind the business. That means everything from team building and company culture training to marketing campaigns and mastermind sessions that work on habits for successful entrepreneurship. We’re always working to communicate our path to providing the right solutions for each client’s overall goal.

The biggest lesson I’ve learned throughout my journey is to have faith and give it all to God. I’ve seen time and time again that all things work out for the best, even when we don’t understand why things are happening. There’s always a silver lining, and I strive to be a silver lining dancer, holding mental space for all things good and JAMGOOD.

So, what do I want the world to know about me and JAMGOODLIVING? Well, I found self-solvation in self-awareness and habits that support the lifestyle I want to have. And I want to share that good with others so that they too can experience life being for them and their better living. We specialize in perspective-shifting in business and life, and our goal is to coach and consult on ways to transform. Trust me, we’re here to be a positive part of your inevitable success story!

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
If you’re looking for a week-long adventure with your bestie, I have just the itinerary for you! First things first, we’ll head over to The Gathering Spot, a members-only workspace, and restaurant where we can enjoy some delicious food and take part in some exciting events.

Next up, we’ll head over to McPhail Studios in Peachtree Corners for some content creation, where we can let our creative juices flow and capture some memorable moments. If we’re lucky enough to have a Wednesday night available, we’ll head over to the James Room for Esquire Brandings’ Slow Jams. You won’t want to miss out on their signature crab cakes, chicken wings, and charcuterie board along with one of their amazing Bacardi special drinks.

For Thursday night, we’ll make our way over to Rock Steady for their famous ‘the mix’ party, where we can dance the night away and make memories that will last a lifetime. On Friday, we’ll find an art show to explore and admire some amazing artwork.

Saturday morning, we’ll start our day off at the aquarium, where we can get up close and personal with some incredible marine life. Finally, we’ll end our week-long adventure with a relaxing four-hour stay at Jeju Spa, where we can unwind, relax, and rejuvenate ourselves.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
It’s incredible how many people have played a significant role in my life. It’s a blessing to realize have so many people have added to my success. First and foremost, I want to dedicate my shoutout to my husband and partner. I’m fortunate enough to stay at home with my son, run a business, and pursue Momtisoary school, all because my husband takes care of all our needs.

I also want to acknowledge my faith in God, who has been my guiding light throughout my journey.

McPhail Studios has been a massive support system for me. It’s the home of my events and content creation, and I’m grateful for their contribution to my success.

My small close circle of best friends has been a significant part of my life. They have seen me through thick and thin, and their unconditional love and support mean the world to me. I also want to give a shoutout to my parents, who have always been my rock. Their unwavering support and encouragement have helped me achieve my goals.

Lastly, being a member of The Gathering Spot and The Atlanta Black Chambers has been an incredible experience. These organizations have provided me with a platform to network with like-minded individuals and grow my business. Doing community service with Be the Change Inc. has also been a fulfilling experience. I’m grateful for the opportunity to give back to my community, I always leave feeling full of gratitude.
