About
I'm Venessa Jacobs, a passionate creator and storyteller dedicated to bringing meaningful art, words, and inspiration into the world. My journey has been anything but ordinary, shaped by my diverse interests and relentless drive to pursue creative freedom.
I wear many hats:
Author: I’ve self-published several books on Amazon KDP, weaving stories and ideas that connect with readers around the globe. Writing has always been my way of making sense of the world and sharing a piece of myself with others.
Blogger: Through my blog, I explore a range of topics that matter to me—life, creativity, personal growth, and beyond. Writing online allows me to connect with readers in a more intimate and immediate way.
Photographer: Capturing life’s beauty one frame at a time, photography is my outlet for visual storytelling. Whether it’s a stunning landscape or an everyday moment, I find joy in preserving memories through my lens.
Founder of The Wellness Collective: I am the founder of The Wellness Collective, a subscription-based platform that embraces a holistic approach to wellness.
Social Media Manager: I manage a YouTube channel, Facebook page and Instagram account for St. Andrew's Lodge.
Marketing Coordinator: I am the Marketing Coordinator for St Andrew's Lodge, blending strategy and creativity to attract guests and boost direct bookings.
Digital Designer: I am a freelance digital designer creating clean, thoughtful visuals that help brands communicate clearly and confidently.
Wix Website Builder: I have built and published a few websites for clients.
Beyond these roles, I’m navigating the ups and downs of life with resilience and determination. I’m building a vibrant community on social media and striving to grow my audience, one meaningful connection at a time. I’m working toward financial stability, fitness, and living a life full of purpose.
Every day is a step closer to my goals, and I’m so grateful for the chance to share my journey with you. Whether you’re here to read, shop, or simply explore, I hope you leave inspired.
