Schylr Walker | Makeup Artist & Brow Technician
As a service provider in the beauty industry , I am surrounded around women of different backgrounds. Being a makeup artist allows me to connect with each and every one of my clients on an intimate level of understanding how it’s like being a woman in today’s society. Everyone wants to feel beautiful in their own skin, wants to enjoy a weekend out after working 40+ hours a week, wants to be able to unwind and feel that boost of confidence after leaving my chair. My goal is to make sure all of my clients, new and returning, have a unforgettable makeup experience when booking an appointment with me. Read more>>

Christian Wise Smith | Candidate for Georgia Attorney General
Currently, I’m running for Georgia Attorney General. I believe in the basic promise that our country was built on—that God created all people equal and that justice and opportunity should exist for everyone. But I also know that right now in Georgia we aren’t doing enough to live up to that promise and that for too many Georgians, the justice system has been profoundly unjust. Read more>>

Jatia Amour Sanchez | Pro Makeup Artist , Beauty Advisor & Custom Blend Specialist
The mission statement of Looks by Jatia Amour, LLC is “Empowering Women Through Beauty and Self care.” I made this my mission in 2020 when many women, including myself, felt the pressure of being caretakers on a new level. Women are often taught not to prioritize themselves or their needs. Even if it’s not spoken it can be an undertone with how we were socialized. We are groomed as caretakers, but often not taught ways to care for ourselves mentally, physically, and emotionally which leads to us feeling drained and sometimes unappreciated. Read more>>

Joyce O’Neal | Holistic Coach and Juice Therapist
Scripture says “People are destroyed from lack of knowledge”; Hosea 4:6, from that perspective and my approach, I believe social impact by measure isn’t measurable as it applies to the unmet range regarding wisdom and knowledge associative to the root cause of conditions that lead to sickness and disease. When people have ongoing medical issues to no resolution, but increased Dr. Visits, more prescriptions that’s the open door for Holystic You to engage. The wisdom, insight and knowledge I bring to the home front, encourages, empowers and motivates clients to take a deeper look into why? Read more>>
Beania Tanae | Singer/Songwriter
I feel my music can help impact society because communication seems to be a lost art in this generation. With technology thriving, simple joys such as love and peace seem harder to grasp. People don’t know how to use their words anymore. Music, I feel, helps them be able to express things they might not otherwise be able to. It helps them feel things maybe they didn’t know they could feel. It’s just so magical to me… how the right song can really change everything.‘ Read more>>
