HI, 
I’M JESS!

MY FIRST SPEAKING GIG WAS FOR A SLICE OF PIZZA AND NOW I’M A 7-FIGURE SPEAKER & AUTHOR.

Everything I create is to help you tell & sell your story…so you can make a living and make a difference at the same time. Let me be straight with you – I’m not that perfectly filtered influencer on the internet that promises you the world and doesn’t follow through after that credit card is swiped.

My mission is to guarantee you two things  👇

• 💰 A financial ROI
• 💖 An extension of your purpose

Enough about my story, let’s help you monetize your story by being a paid keynote speaker and author!

AS HEADBANDS OF HOPE STARTED TO GROW, SO DID MY STORY…

  • NMy book, Chasing the Bright Side, debuted #1 on Amazon.
  • NMy public speaking career took off to 50+ gigs a year.
  • NI launched a podcast, Business on the Bright Side.

For a long time, I thought my success was how far I could reach. How many books could I write? How many businesses could I start? How many stages could I speak on?

But now, I’ve realized my success isn’t about how far I can reach – but how far I can help other women reach.

Specifically, how can I help other women uncover the value in their story so they can sell it through speaking and writing.

So here’s my

NORTH STAR.
