What defines your brand?

To jonz for something is to have a craving that comes from deep in your soul. You simply can’t think of anything, but that good thing you’re jonzin’ for. Your mouth waters at the thought of indulging your taste-buds with sweet, homemade goodness.Your mind can’t let go of the good memories of homemade cookies, cakes, pies, . . . DESSERTS! You’re jonzin’. You’re jonzin’ bad. You’re having a sweet jonz! It is our mission at Sweet Jonz to help you by feeding your jonz. We use the finest and freshest ingredients in making our mouthwatering desserts and treats. We’ll help you take the edge off your sweet jonz, and we’ll make sure you’ll want to come back for more. Sweet Jonz desserts and treats are something to look forward to. A Sweet Jonz can be a private pleasure or a gift of joy.

 

How important is it to have a dream/vision?

Without a vision for your life, how do you get through those days that make you question? Question why you work as hard as you do? Question which paths to take? Once I had the vision of Sweet Jonz, I purposefully wrote down exactly what I saw for Sweet Jonz and for myself. Between you and me, I took the next step and actually taped my vision for Sweet Jonz to my bathroom mirror. I look at it every day. I begin each day reading it aloud. I stay focused this way. Starting a business takes a tremendous amount of work. There are many sleepless WEEKS! My vision keeps me pushing forward. My vision reminds me of why I work as hard as I do on those days when I am so tired I am delusional. My vision directs me on the paths toward its fulfillment when life hands me distractions. Vision provides clarity.

 

Who/what challenges your vision to grow?

Tish Emmens and TEworks is proof that vision + consistency = success! I have had the privilege to watch TEworks grow over the years into the successful company it is today. I strive to one day be as much an inspiration to others as TEworks has been an inspiration to me.

Sweet Jonz is my baby. Since its inception, each day has provided me with new challenges and opportunities. As with any baby, it has been exciting witnessing the first steps (i.e., my first order, my first catering job, etc.). I look forward to watching Sweet Jonz grow and mature. The anticipation of its endless possibilities keeps me going!

What was your first step in birthing your vision?

I do not claim to know it all but, I do know that we all have gifts. One of my gifts is baking. Another gift is my desire to see people happy. These gifts have helped me to cultivate a vision for my life which, in turn helped me to birth Sweet Jonz. I believe that when you truly feel the power behind how you see your life, you realize you have the courage to make it happen! Life is meant to be lived big! Everything else is just a waste.
