EP 88: Finding your truth and embracing your calling - with Jessica Huie MBE

Hiya, it’s Selina here today and I have the most delicious and magical interview for you. I was lucky enough to spend time with Jessica Huie MBE, author of Purpose - find your truth and embrace your calling, published by Hay House.
I read the book a few months back and it blew me away. I wouldn’t say it was a book so much as a transformational experience. I recommend buying the book AND the audiobook so that you can hear Jessica tell her story in her own voice. It’s mesmerising.
If you’ve never come across Jessica before then I’m so delighted to be able to introduce you to her. Her story is awe inspiring. Today she is an entrepreneur who was awarded an MBE, by the Queen, in 2014 for her contributions to entrepreneurship and a positive influence on the community.
That in itself is impressive, but even more so when you find out that at 15 she was expelled from school with 4 GCSEs and at seventeen became a single mum living alone in a council flat.
From there she rose up and ended up enjoying a glittering career as a journalist and publicist and has worked with some of the world’s biggest stars and business people.
Then in 2006 she launched Color Blind Cards, a multi-award winning multicultural greeting card company which drove an early conversation around the importance of ethnic representation in retail and became the first independent brand to secure a high-street presence for black cards in the UK. Nowadays she is found busy writing and running workshops and retreats from London to Jamaica. Workshops and retreats which must be every bit as magical as her. So I hope you enjoy this episode as much I enjoyed recording it. I gushed so much at the start of the recording about how amazing I thought the book was that it brought Jessica to tears! I hope you are moved by it too.
