We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Jaylyn Desean a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Jaylyn, looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. Did you always know you wanted to pursue a creative or artistic career? When did you first know?
I knew I wanted to pursue a social media presence when people would literally message me asking when my next video was coming out, some even demanding me to post. I never officially “started” making content, I would just post funny things that I would do, not expecting much attention from anyone other than the people around me, which then turned Into the amazing community I’ve grown today. I don’t make content for the money or fame, I do It because It not only makes me happy, but for the people who enjoy my content as well, best feeling ever.

Jaylyn, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
If you don’t know me, my name Is Jaylyn, known on social media by the handle @RealJGF, but most people call me “JG”. I’m a social media Influencer that makes many different forms of content from short, long, livestream and In person events. I do all of this just to bring smiles to people’s faces, I stay myself and that’s what keeps me going. I don’t have to act like someone I’m not, my community loves me for me and that’s unbeatable, beyond grateful to be In this position.

Is there a particular goal or mission driving your creative journey?
I have two “goals” that currently keep me going. The first “goal” Is to put myself In a position financially that allows me to never have to worry about the next month. I’ve lived most of my life In a rollercoaster when It comes to finances, I want to live life carefree when It comes to that at least. My second “goal” Is to be the reason someone changes their ways. There Is a broad definition for that, but I want someone to see my journey and want to better themselves all because they saw there Is always a time & place for you If you remain focused and determined to get to where you want to be.

What do you find most rewarding about being a creative?
Personally, the most rewarding thing to me so far Is not having to Introduce myself anymore. I used to have to explain who I am, what I do & show my work to earn people’s “respect”. Recently though, I’ve been able to go places and people know me, or If someone doesn’t, there’s someone who does and will Introduce what I do to them which Is mind-blowing. Being known by at least a handful of people when you walk In a room Is an amazing feeling and I thank God for being In this position.
