Jewel, 48, looks boyish with red hair as she models a black and white Beetlejuice-esque outfit.

Jewel cut a graceful figure when she was spotted in New York on Thursday amid publicity rounds for her new project Innerworld.

The 48-year-old is a co-founder of the new effort, which is a virtual reality platform on Mark Zuckerberg’s Metaverse.

Innerworld focuses on helping its users with their mental health, including through virtual support groups that they can attend anonymously.

While touring Manhattan this week, Jewel was a sight to behold in a monochrome striped Alice + Olivia suit reminiscent of Tim Burton’s classic Beetlejuice.

She accessorized the elegant ensemble with several colorful rings from her own jewelry brand Songlines, which she launched in 2018.

Jewel wore her wavy auburn hair down in a look designed by Nicole Blais and refined her features with makeup applied by Josée Leduc.

She gushed, “It’s like doing business with swagger – oh, we’ve got our Songlines rings, little pops of color,” adding, “I should do business all the time!”

In the last few days she has been very busy promoting Innerworld, saying People he embarked on the project because “accessibility is critical.”

Jewel, who was born in Utah and raised in Alaska, explained: ‘We can’t allow happiness to be elitist. It can’t just be for the rich who can afford a therapist.

He also shed some light on how the platform works, saying, “When you log into Innerworld, you enter your own private living room, and then you enter a portal where there is a community center around the fire pit, and there are people from all over the world.” parts”. from all over the world hanging out in a safe and supported environment.’

Jewel continued, “You can tell the handler, ‘My pet just died. I’m very sad. What do you recommend?” And then they can pull out a visual tool, like the grief cycle, and you can talk about it with the guide, or you can talk to other members of the community.’

In December, Jewel opened up in an interview with People magazine in which he spoke about mental health.

The Intuition hitmaker said she almost didn’t sign her record deal at age 15 because she wanted to avoid “a meltdown.”

The mother-of-one told the publication: “In this job, we lose more people to addiction, overdose, suicide, mental breakdowns, and I didn’t want to be a statistic.”

Elaborating on his mindset, he said, “My goal when I moved [of my house] at 15 was to learn a new emotional language.’

As a precocious adolescent, she added that “I knew that as much as I had a genetic heritage that could predispose me to diabetes or heart disease, I could tell that I had an emotional heritage and could predispose me to cycles of addiction and abuse.” ‘

The musical artist left home as a teenager and was homeless, living out of her car when she was discovered.

“When they discovered me, it’s funny, I almost didn’t sign my record deal because I was very aware that if you take someone with my emotional background, and God forbid, I become famous…”, she explained.

As a compromise, the brilliant young woman said that she made a personal agreement with herself.

“I made a deal that I would sign that contract as long as my number one job was still learning to be a complete and happy human being,” he told the outlet.

As a result, at the peak of his music career, he took a break due to needing “time to psychologically adjust to the level of fame.”

And she has spent the past seven years focused solely on her role as the mother of her 11-year-old son Kace, whom she shares with ex-husband Ty Murray.

In the sit-down chat, he posed the questions: ‘What’s the point of a race if you want to jump off a building or take your own life?

‘What’s the point of fame? What’s the point of ‘likes’ if you’re not happy and if you don’t like yourself?’

Taking action, the blonde superstar launched a campaign to combat mental health issues alongside the Inspiring Children Foundationof which he has been a part for almost two decades.

In a conversation with People, Jewel said: “We really wanted to launch this campaign over the holidays to remind people that they’re not alone.”

‘It is not enough to create awareness. We have to offer people solutions and that’s my favorite part of the #NotAloneChallenge, is that they get to see resources that are free, available and proven to work.’
