Lesley Jones is a writer, mother of three, and the founder of Traveling Pendants — a jewelry + tech company built on the belief that real connection begins with shared stories. After quitting drinking on January 5, 2015, Lesley began a journey of rediscovery that led her from silence to storytelling. Her recovery is a story of quitting before the losing started, and became the spark that inspired her to help others connect through shared experiences. Through her brand, she creates heirloom-quality pendants embedded with QR codes that link to real stories of strength, hope, and healing — reminders that we’re all connected by the experiences that shape us. Lesley lives in Dayton, Ohio, where she fills up not with cocktails, but with connection, purpose, and faith.
