11 years as a couple and 4 years since the start of this beautiful and enriching adventure, I feel the need to show what the impulses of the heart can give.
As I was preparing to broadcast, on April 30th, my documentary, Grandir Heureux, filmed over 6 years from the creation of the Alternative School for Railway Workers in Delson, which I saw come to life for having had it as a life mission for 3 years; as we released on May 4th, the 3rd edition of our Bookzine Vive, as since April 4th, we have been producing and broadcasting (thanks to you, 81,000 subscribers, who allow us to be media in itself) our show Vive, as these latest initiatives are intertwined with the launches in the coming weeks of the new ranges of varnishes, lipsticks and perfumes, I can firmly believe that instinct and you, the precious community with whom I love to share so much, have led us to do things like few people and that there is something to be inspired by. I want to spread the idea that everything is possible.
It all started because my boyfriend first valued me (while I was in a low point) and then, following my heart, a first idea came to fruition (school) giving me confidence in this way. So, following what it told me, dance DVDs for parents with children (while Zumba was entering the country) and the first book were produced and then written.
Always supported by my partner, taking flight with this esteem that blossomed with accomplishments, with a confidence that did not watch our bank account empty, served by projects that could be defined as unprofitable, that was never my question, I asked for another investment in an idea, that of an online web magazine because I wanted to share inspirations & invigorating recipes that make a difference. “Okay” to look at my lover who wanted this confidence that he drew from the love that we built day after day.
You responded, a few dozen, then a few thousand a year later, with enough thanks to motivate me to continue. I designed a TV show, then wrote another book. It was at its launch that I first experienced what we call success, only to be completely destabilized. Am I up to what is asked of me? Humbly, respectfully, I then chose to watch over this mission of spreading vitality in homes, to place it at the heart of my actions. As a gift for this amazing day, Luc offered me to offer my community these treatments that I love so much, having adopted them 11 years earlier. From 4 products you asked us for the following, then a range of makeup, perfumes... We listen to you, follow you, and from meeting to meeting, creators, specialists, experts come together to form what you know today, with a hundred exceptional natural products.
A third book is coming. And, following my heart's impulses and creative desires, I ask if we can launch a paper bookzine (which you've been asking us for for 3 years) and then continue our show in our own way, realizing that we can be independent in terms of distribution, what a wonderful freedom.
Maison Jacynthe therefore designates all our activities:
online magazines
publishing house for print magazines and books
production company for the show Vive Web and the film Grandir Heureux,
cosmetic care and the brand new makeup range: thanks this time to Vincent Honnart, also a great enthusiast of human values.
The Jacynthe Fair, our annual event (always the last Sunday in August) which brought together 1,200 guests at the first edition up to more than 4,000 in 2016
conferences, beauty workshops, home visits and children's camps!
Founded in 2012 under the name Jmagazine, the online magazine is a collection of health and vitality inspiration featuring gluten-free and vegan recipes, as well as health articles, sustainable inspiration, simplicity and autonomy tips, and beauty rituals. The cosmetics line, launched in September 2015, was developed by Luc Larivée, an aromatherapy expert (and Jacynthe, always passionate about her) and offers high-quality, natural products with 100% active ingredients. The creation of Maison Jacynthe in August 2016 coincides with the launch of a brand new makeup line made with natural ingredients.
To be continued!!!
