Jessica Huie MBE

Jessica Huie MBE is founder of the Purpose Academy and author of PURPOSE published by Hay House.

Jessica enjoyed a glittering career as a journalist and publicist, and has worked with some of the world’s biggest stars and business people, including Samuel L. Jackson, Simon Cowell, Kelly Rowland & Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle.

Twelve years ago, Jessica 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. 

Labelled one of Britain’s Most Inspiring Entrepreneurs by the Evening Standard, in 2014 Jessica was honoured with an MBE for services to entrepreneurship.

In 2016, when Jessica’s father was diagnosed with terminal cancer, for the first time in her life she stopped doing and became present.

Her first book, PURPOSE and transformation evolved from the profound space between life and death in which she found herself as a carer for her beloved father.
