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

Hi JiLLi, how has your work-life balance changed over time?
Life gets really busy sometimes… I have gotten better at time management but I am a procrastinator at heart! I have found that waking up early is a great way to balance between working life and taking care of myself. My brain works best in the morning… I make lists, try multitasking when I can, like vocal exercises while folding laundry… But ultimately, having a strong morning routine and prioritizing myself and staying active helps me show up feeling great to work!

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
Right now I’m focused on developing my artistry and skills as a student in the Vocal Artist Program at Icon Collective. This year I also became a songwriter for “Fearless Soul”, a youtube channel that features inspirational and uplifting content. I couldn’t imagine a better way for me to share my message with people around the world!

I’m getting so excited to release more music this July 2021! I’m also looking forward to live music venues opening up again, I’ll be performing wherever I can in Los Angeles!

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.
I’d have to take them to the Hunnington Dog Beach, Universal Studios, shopping on Melrose… hiking through Griffith Park and a walk around the Hollywood Reservoir! There’s so many places to grab vegan food around LA, my favorites are Veggie House in Studio City and NoMoo in West Hollywood!

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I’d like to shout out my incredibly talented friend Tyler Burdic who just dropped his first single “Natural Love”. His lyrics are heartfelt, you’ll fall in love with his voice!
