In the Haven with Lindsey Hyams
Written By Hannah Corbett - Interview with Lindsey Hyams
Starting in In the Haven, one thing I was eager to find was someone whose insights truly reflected the community we’re working to build. And I didn’t have to look far to discover the perfect person to kick off the first issue of In the Haven!
Lindsey Hyam. You may recognize her from managing some of your favorite social media accounts or from her own, but what you might not know is that she radiates warmth and confidence, not just in her career but in her vision for the future. She’s not just excelling in beauty marketing—she’s redefining it. Through a series of emails and messages, Lindsey shared valuable insights into her journey, the lessons she’s learned, and the big dreams that keep her inspired. One thing became clear: Lindsey’s story is a testament to passion and perseverance.
Curious to learn more, I asked Lindsey about life beyond the digital world. "When I’m not working on campaigns, you’ll usually find me at a barre class or in my kitchen experimenting with new recipes," she shared. "Cooking and barre keep me centered. They help me stay grounded and creative." That balance, she explained, is what keeps her thriving in a fast-paced industry. It’s this drive for harmony that fuels her big-picture dream: to lead in the beauty marketing industry and mentor the next generation of trailblazers.
As someone deeply involved in the social media world, I had to ask: what’s her favorite part of the industry? "It’s the relationships," she said, describing her favorite aspect of the job. "Building connections with influencers and ambassadors is so rewarding. Seeing them amplify a brand’s message—that’s where the magic happens." Reflecting on her early days, she admitted, "When I first started, I thought perfection was everything. But perfection isn’t always achievable, and that’s okay. Now I know it’s about flexibility and growth. Some of the best opportunities come from being open to change."
Another lesson Lindsey highlighted was the importance of patience. "In marketing, especially with campaigns, understanding that some goals take time has completely shifted my perspective," she said. "It’s not always about instant results; understanding that good outcomes come with time."
When I asked if she could swap lives with anyone for a day, I half-expected her to say some popular influencer, but I was pleasantly surprised when she said she’d swap lives with a professor for a day. Her passion for teaching and mentorship shines through. "Teaching and mentoring are long-term goals for me. I’d love to share what I’ve learned and inspire the next generation of marketers."
When Lindsey spoke about In the Haven, her enthusiasm was contagious. "In the Haven aligns perfectly with my passion for community-building and empowering others. The idea of contributing to a space that fosters collaboration, creativity, and shared growth is incredibly exciting. It’s a great opportunity to connect with like-minded girlies and make a meaningful impact in our world!"
Looking ahead, Lindsey remains optimistic and driven. Her story proves that when you mix authenticity, patience, and a whole lot of heart, you’re bound to make waves. One thing’s for sure: whatever Lindsey does next will be big, bold, and absolutely brilliant.
