- Hello, my name is Leeya Rose Jackson, and I just quit my "dream" Art Director job at Weiden + Kennedy NY. Emotional hijinks ensued. A different take on the "I don't dream of labor" trope as an almost 30, Black female creative.
In the coming weeks, I plan to make a follow-up - including specific tips for going full-time freelance/creative entrepreneur and how I became an Art Director in the first place. But for now, welcome to a new chapter in my creative/career journey.

Continue to believe in yourself. You've set goals throughout your life put in the effort to get there. This is no different. Give yourself grace, have patience and continue to work hard. You will succeed as always Leeya Rose 🌹
Thanks Auntie!! I appreciate that!
Kudos to you for being so brave to step out of your comfort zone and continually challenging yourself. The adventurer begins again. May The Lord continue to bless you Leeya.
Congrats on taking this step, I understand because I took this step too from my job, but this isn’t my first time I quit a job. I will say just take it one step and one day at a time. I am a witness you can always go back if you want to, but you will feel regret if you never try. I know you will do great 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾!!!
Congratulations on taking the leap! The unknown is scary, but the possibilities are endless. Also, I love that you brought us into the journey and showed different points of what you were feeling/experiencing. Excited for the next video and the dope projects you will be working on. You know I am wishing you nothing but greatness!!
The way my heart is DANCING for you-the possibilities are endless & your life is YOURS 💕 wishing you all the success, I’m so happy I came across this beautiful video. Keep on💪🏽
Thank you so much! I'm excited about my journey!
@@LeeyaMakesNoise absolutely! 🤗
Leeya!! I’m so happy for you! I know it sounds scary but you’re an inspiration for so many of us! ♥️ sending you positive vibes and good luck!
Power to you!!!
Thank you so much!
Leeya, thank you for sharing your art journey with us. I just now discovered your channel a few months ago and I have been going back and watching your old videos to catch up. You are a true inspiration. Your career reminds me of Halle Berry's character on Boomerang. You took the exact path I thought I wanted in life, but I decided early on. I wanted to be an Art Teacher/Artist instead of an Art Director/Artist. Nevertheless, I am so proud of you taking that leap of faith. I can definitely understand how your feelings were at that time. I would love to know how are you are feeling about your decision now.
Also the poster you designed that was on the bus, That was so cool. Also very similar to Boomerang. I am so proud of you. I hope you will continue to do your channel. It will eventually grow. You are inspiring me to make more videos for my channel. I am filming a vlog right now. I subscribed on both of my youtube channels. I am wishing you the best in all of your endeavors.
You are so awesome I'm so honored to be connected to you! You have the skills and talent to do the absolute most! Anything you need please let us know!
Congrats! I'm excited to see what's next from you. Have fun on your new journey😁
You got this, Fam! I know exactly how you feel. Excited for your future
Thanks famm! Are you full-time dancing now?!
Niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
You took the leap! You are living! With a four weeks notice lol

Crazy I casually searched up art director on RUclips and stumbled upon your video and realized you're Minnesota based. So am I , we should connect would love to pick your brain.
