The Mixing Glass | Heard House | Jupiter Jones & Navigating Neurodivergence
Live from Fort Worth, Texas! The Bardtenders head to Fort Worth for the second annual Heard House to bring you live episodes with some amazing hospitality professionals. The Bardtenders had the chance to stay at the Heard House sponsored by Heard Card Game where bartenders from around the country came together to share their stories, gain access to education opportunities, and create some amazing memories along the way. Join us over the next several weeks as these bartenders share their experiences of their time in the hospitality industry!
In this episode of "The Mixing Glass", Jupiter Jones talks about creating unique and genuine brand experiences and capturing them on film. We also take a deep dive into navigating what it means to be neurodivergent while working in the hospitality industry.

Have you ever wondered how to capture the magic of a perfectly crafted cocktail or the electric energy of a bustling bar? Meet Jupiter Jones, the autistic artist and advocate who's been a part of the hospitality industry for over 20 years. Her vibrant photography and videography tell the stories behind the spirits, the spaces, and the people who make this industry so captivating.
But Jupiter's not just about pretty pictures. She's a passionate voice for neurodiversity advocacy (as written about in LA Weekly), and her company, Lionysus Creative, is all about celebrating life's pleasures and breaking free from fear and judgement – just like the Greek God Dionysus himself.
With a background in event production and hospitality consulting, Jupiter's a true industry insider. She's a familiar face at Tales of the Cocktail, where she's volunteered, photographed, presented, and spoken. She's worked with everyone from Johnnie Walker and Bacardi to iconic bars like Dead Rabbit, The Roosevelt Room, and even the historic tiki bar The Mai Kai.
