Medawar Jewelers has been a midMichigan gem for over 40 years.
The family’s introduction to the jewelry business began in 1920 thanks to renowned watchmaker and master craftsman Chakib Medawar. Continuing the legacy, watchmaker and master jeweler Pierre Medawar opened the first Lansing-area store in 1978. Alongside Catrine Medawar, Medawar Jewelers grew to five locations across Michigan. Pierre and Catrine’s two children, Christina and Jon-Pierre, are now taking the reins, bringing their own talents in design and marketing to the multigenerational family business. Catrine and Christina shared their thoughts on working together in a family business and what is on the horizon for Medawar Jewelers in 2020.
YOU AND YOUR BROTHER JON-PIERRE ARE THE THIRD GENERATION OF THE MEDAWAR JEWELERS FAMILY. WHAT ARE YOUR ROLES IN THE BUSINESS?
Christina Medawar: About four years ago, my brother and I officially took over our family business. We have done a lot more with social media and social advertising. In our business, a lot has been changing over the past few years. Jon-Pierre and I are really excited to be part of this new industry of jewelry and having our parents backing us up. We definitely still need them. They are so wise and know so much about the business and jewelry itself. In our industry, I feel like we’re going back to the ’70s, with custom design work and not the mass production of the ’90s. My dad started off doing what we are trying to do right now with custom design, so it’s been really cool to see things come full circle. As far as our roles, Jon-Pierre is the creative director. Our goal is to create 99% of the things that are in the store — we’re about 70% there right now. Every piece of inventory goes through him, and he does a lot of the repair work, as well. We have master jewelers in every location, but Jon-Pierre oversees that part. I focus on customer service, social media work, HR and charity events.
WHAT IS THE BEST PART OF WORKING WITH FAMILY?
Christina Medawar: Working with family is the best. We have a trust that you don’t have with anyone else, and that trust is really important. My brother and I have always been very close, so being able to have him as a partner is wonderful. We
Juan Trevino, Christina, Pierre, baby Joaquin, Catrine, Jon-Pierre and Veronica
can get on each other’s nerves, but the nice part about it is we sort of mull it over and a day later it’s fine. In our family business, having our parents be there for answering questions and as a guidance is very helpful. I also love all of our employees, and they’ve truly become like family.
Catrine Medawar: The best part of working with family is the fact that you are working with people you trust and people you already have an established relationship with. You love them, you care about them and they’re in your closest circle. You know that they understand you more than the average person. Sometimes working with family – they know what you’re thinking and feeling, as opposed to people you don’t know as well. Overall, working with family has been one of our strengths. For Pierre and me, working with our kids has been the best thing ever. One, we get to see them and communicate with them. I love calling Christina or having her call me 15 times a day. It’s amazing.
ARE YOU HOPING THAT YOUR SON MIGHT BECOME THE NEXT GENERATION OF FAMILY WORKING IN THE BUSINESS?
let us pursue whatever we wanted. At 13, I wanted to move to California and live on the beach in a trailer park and make jewelry out of seashells. My brother wanted to become a famous singer and guitarist, and he was in a band as a teenager. We ended up choosing to be in the family business, and I think that’s what I want to do with my son. I want him to become whatever it is what he wants to be. If he chooses to be in the business, then that’s great.
WHAT DO YOU SEE ARE THE PARALLELS BETWEEN THE GENERATIONAL, HEIRLOOM NATURE OF JEWELRY ITSELF AND YOUR FAMILY’S HISTORY OF WORKING IN THE JEWELRY BUSINESS?
Christina Medawar: My parents have clients who they sold their engagement ring to, and their kids and grandkids will come back and talk to me or J.P. They will tell us about how our dad sold them a ring 30 years ago and they want to see if we can help them repurpose the diamonds. I think it’s awesome that I get to hear these kinds of stories.
Catrine Medawar: The best part of the job is when clients come in and say that they’ve worked with your family and loved what they did. I had a few customers come in the other day, a gentleman and four of his kids who are now adults. He said that they had a tradition of coming to our store every Christmas to buy his wife a present and the kids would help. There were a couple of years they stopped the tradition because of life and moving away, but they were back in the area and wanted to renew that tradition. It brought tears to my eyes. I remembered the kids, although I didn’t recognize them because now, they’re adults as old as my kids. It was beautiful to wait on them, and there was that sense of, “I know you. I know what you’ve done for me. I feel comfortable here.”
WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO OTHERS ABOUT HOW TO SUCCESSFULLY WORK WITH FAMILY?
Christina Medawar: Having patience is definitely one of them. It’s also important to be able to look at a sibling or a parent in one aspect of your life, and respect them in a different way in business. I respect my brother as my business partner; he’s not just my little brother. Having those different lenses in which to see your family is key.
Catrine Medawar: Some of the challenges are that while you love your family, sometimes things are a little tense at work and it can carry on to the family relationship. It’s difficult sometimes to be the boss and employing family members, because the lines are not always so clear.
LOOKING TOWARD THE FUTURE, WHAT ARE YOU HOPING TO ACCOMPLISH WITH MEDAWAR JEWELERS?
Christina Medawar: On the horizon, there will be a lot more custom work, including house-made lines from Jon-Pierre and my dad. They will actually be in the jeweler’s bench working on the pieces that we as a family have created. You’ll see a lot of BEHIND THE SCENES
that in the coming years. We have a lot of great ideas for our five locations we’re excited to be working on in 2020.

HOW TO START A NONPROFIT Tips, tricks and more for the aspiring do-gooder
BY LAUREN FARHAT
So, you want to know if starting a nonprofit is right for you. In your gut, you can feel the passion you embody toward making a greater impact in your community. You recognize that the nonprofit world can be a tough feat, but your desire to do good and share it with others is too resilient. You know you have a worthwhile mission, a dedication to that mission and a team of like-minded supporters who are equally committed to those same beliefs. Your heart carries faith in all the greatness you could accomplish, but you find yourself timid and uncertain about how to take your motivations to the next level.
The good news is that in having a unique mission, a strong dedication and a group of compatible supporters, you’ve already taken your first step — maybe without even knowing it. Bob Hoffman, founder of ePIFanyNow, shares about the accidental start of his nonprofit, and how sometimes all it takes is a little heart and soul to get things off the ground and running. “I just started organizing these ‘pass it forward’ events once a month,” said Hoffman, “People would come and share their stories about positive changes they’ve made within their communities, and it became a huge hit. As I started hosting more of these events, venues were requesting a nonprofit number from me to rent the spaces. We didn’t have one at the time, so I figured if we wanted to keep up what we were doing, we better start a nonprofit.”
At ePIFanyNow, the mission is to create a revolution of positive and transformational experiences through expediential acts of kindness. While Hoffman agrees that starting his own nonprofit was a lot of work, a lot of dedication and much more labor-intensive than ever anticipated, it gave him a sense of peace and purpose. “The world can be negative, and it can be hard,” Hoffman noted. “But when you’re on the right path, and doing what you love, the world will send signs to remind you that you’re exactly where you should be.” In taking a small concept by storm, such as simply sharing a smile with others, and reforming it into something much bigger, Hoffman has been able to do wonders for the Lansing community, and stay “exactly where he should be,” for the past 10 years.
For people like Hoffman, nonprofit difficulties truly begin presenting themselves when the utilization of heart and soul only goes so far. As a nonprofit begins progressing and attempting to maintain itself, the need for finances, resources and structure becomes much greater. Nonprofit Network Executive Director Regina Pinney said, “My first question to someone looking to start their own nonprofit is always, give me a clear why as to how your mission is different from others.” Pinney continued, “In the United States, we have over 1.5 million nonprofit organizations, and 50,000 in the state of Michigan. People don’t realize the
sheer number of organizations out there, and the shortage of generous people who have enough disposable income to sustain them.”
The key for success in nonprofit creation truly relies on an individual’s solidification of the “why you” statement. Building this important foundation will not only bring purpose to your efforts, but to all the outsiders looking in to help — from funding to volunteerism. Seek out similar nonprofits who are experiencing success, and look at how and why they’re funded. Consider if their strategy is best for you to mirror, or if it can be done differently and better. Be certain to ask a lot of questions, use your resources, plan strategically and don’t be keen on moving too quickly. As they say, nothing good comes easy. When it comes to transforming your community, the results are worth the wait.
