Have you ever wondered what it really takes to build a jewelry business rooted in meaning and emotional connection?
In this Spotlight Series episode of the Jewelry Business Academy podcast, I'm sitting down with Aaron May, founder of Mayniac Metals, a memorial jewelry brand that creates deeply personal pieces using cremated remains.
Aaron shares how he accidentally fell into jewelry-making, how one meaningful gift for his wife sparked a powerful niche, and how he's built a business centered on transparency, trust, and community. We talk about balancing fatherhood and entrepreneurship, managing emotional client work, navigating social media marketing, and scaling without losing integrity.
If you've ever wanted to build a jewelry business that feels aligned, purpose-driven, and authentic to who you are, this conversation will inspire you to lean into your unique path.
