We had the good fortune of connecting with Isabella Schmidt and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Isabella, do you have a favorite quote or affirmation?
My favorite quote is “Inspired by the fear of being average”. Since I was little I always strived to push outside the box, to be something and do something different. I wanted to set myself a part from the bunch.

Working long hours and doing something I love and can pour myself into every single day is such a blessing; although it comes with a lot of hard work, motivation and dedication. Running your own business is not for that of the weak. Being inspired by the “fear of being average” pushes me and reminds me everyday to be authentically myself in everything I aspire to be and do.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
Nothing good comes easy, but it is always worth it. The vision and the future of what we see for Jexy is huge and seeing it come together in what will be almost 3 years is incredible. For me, I did not picture this path for myself. I actually stumbled upon influencer marketing throughout covid and fell in love with it. I saw a much different future for myself, but that has only taught me that sometimes the best things in life we do not see coming.

Jexy is and was built upon community. We always want our team and talent to feel like they are a part of something more than just themselves. We want to make an impact on everyone’s lives we touch.

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.
Naples, Fl is a great place to be! Of course we would have to hit up fifth avenue and go to some of the restaurants there as well as swing by the Mercato for brunch.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I would like to personally shoutout my business partner Jenny, for having this dream with me and working side by side with me every single day. We definitely go through our ups and downs, as every business does, but we are incredibly lucky to work so well as a team together. I truly could not do this without her and her incredible vision.
