Join me for a feral summer and a magical mystery tour into your copywriting, marketing and manifestation practices (with some journaling for good measure)
Here you will learn how to write with audacity, to sell with authenticity, to create a journaling practice and create a life of meaning and magic. Here you'll find a sanctuary of like-hearted creatives to give you the best summer your business could ask for.
If you’ve ever wanted to sell with authenticity, to create soulful stories, courageous content and market yourself mindfully and intentionally, these sessions offer the perfect opportunity for a summer sabbatical with soul.
A combination of my most popular courses, my supportive membership community (which has it's own signature 7 Chapters of Soulful Marketing included) and 3 live in-depth sessions with me to pick my brains about specific topics and receive personal support, the Summer Sessions offers everything you could want to breathe life into your business this summer and set you up for autumn renewed and reinvigorated.
Original, soulful and personal, each month has a different focus.
There is a session each month (July, August and September) where you have personal access to me, offering advice and providing feedback.
July: Copywriting Session
August: Marketing Session
September: Manifestation Session
October: Bonus Journaling Session
You will have access for the full 3 months to my membership community, Empress. A dedicated space to bring together courageous creatives and offer somewhere to share and connect. Here you will have access to a minimum of 4 extra live sessions a month, bonus sessions from earlier in the year, our Creative Quarterly Sessions on Authentic Email Marketing and Creating a Home Page with Heart, a calming 14-day Initiation practice and much more. The connections you will meet here alone are worth their weight in gold.
And it all happens in the heart space as she nurtures, sustains and feeds herself and others. This community exists to nurture and feed you. To grow the seeds of soul success and honour the creative impulse in all things, restoring the balance of masculine and feminine energy and embracing emotion and intuition. This is your creative field to nurture your gifts and tend to the kernel of the ideas you are being called to create.
Strength in softness, creative abundance and authentic connection – this is the essence of Empress. If this calls to you then you are here for a reason. Trust the path and enter the Empress community – I cannot wait to welcome you.
Empress is about care of the creative. The Empress tarot card represents creativity and abundance and the strength in softness. She is replenishing, nurturing, plentiful yet powerful. Above all she is vulnerable – she creates a kingdom of conversation rather than dictation – a space for collaboration and connection. She sows the seeds for her future, connecting to her roots and lifting others. She represents the feminine and is the ultimate card of creation, of Mother Nature, honouring what you are birthing in your business.
Empress represents wisdom, the feminine, self-care and kindness, creativity and fortune. Her scepter represents the power she has over her life and she sits in a field of grain, the embodiment of growth, sustenance and sustainability. She represents the subconscious seeded with ideas – she is the embodiment of what she knows or believes from the heart space.
The Summer Sessions offer a 3-month sabbatical to work on authentic marketing and courageous content for soul-centred entrepreneurs, providing a dedicated space to support you in committing to your creative business, your contented life and your coterie of inspired entrepreneurs.
Jess Collins is The Feral Writer and Soulful Marketer. Known for her straight talking grit not gloss approach, she tells tales with texture and leads with truth. Personal, powerful and impactful, she creates courageous content and authentic marketing for brands worldwide.
Jess originally ran a content marketing agency and was a specialist content marketing writer for The Guardian. These days things are much more simple, working part time from the sand, notebook in hand, she has embraced a slower pace and more intentional way of working.
The Summer Sessions have been created to promote purposeful marketing and courageous content that has intention, integrity and authenticity at the heart. To show there is space for mindful marketing that has meaning and emotion and to connect you to like-hearted entrepreneurs. Here you are called to rekindle your creativity and remember your roots, putting the real into entrepreneurial and rising with authenticity and truth.

Yes of course! Although The Summer Sessions is predominantly for creative entrepreneurs, it can be helpful to anyone who wants to bring more mindfulness and intentionality to their lives and encourages practices such as journaling or manifestation that are suitable for everyone.
I don’t have a business, can I still join?
Once you sign up I will give you access to everything by email (please allow up to 24 hours to receive this) so you can join at your leisure and prioritise what matters most to you. You will also have access to the 3 live sessions which will be at different times to accommodate different time zones but all will be recorded and available for replay.
Will I be able to access all of the content and sessions?
Of course – not everyone has a creative business although I believe there is an intrinsic creative thread running through everyone and that once we claim that and connect with it, our work is more powerful and our wisdom can be expressed. As long as you are open to doing business authentically, you will love The Summer Sessions
I have a business but I’m not creative, is it for me?
You don’t get private access to me, however the sessions we have together as a group monthly offer an opportunity to ask questions, seek feedback and spark ideas with me.
Will I get private access to you?
Don't worry - there are options available for those who just want the courses and the lives (who are already members) and those who want access to the live sessions only
What if i already have your courses or am a member of empress already?
now isn't the right time for me, will you run it again?
If you need more information or have a question, please send me an email, and I'll get back with you as soon as I can.
There is no cancellation option for The Summer Sessions - it is a one-off price that gives you access for the full 3 months (July, August and September).
What happens if I want to cancel?
After the 3 months you have access to all course material and ebooks. You will no longer have access to me or to Empress but the rest of the material is all yours. You will have access to the recorded lives for 12 months following the sessions.
What happens after the 3 months? do i still have access?
I don’t know if I'll be running it again but if I do, it will be different (and I currently have no plans to run it a second time as I have something else in the pipeline for next year!) If you are considering it I would say to go for it as apart from the membership, you'll retain access once summer is over.

A creative cohort who come together to work on their business, improve their mindset and create a life of balance and intention, created for you, led by me with authentic marketing at the heart.
Join me for a summer of strategy and soul.
A few words that do come to mind are therapeutic, enriching, calming and soulful of course. I’ve worked with Jess for over 6 years now, every penny invested has come back to me tenfold which makes The Feral Writer priceless.''
Jess works in such a way that you really get to the heart of your business, thinking about your core values and messages. Her writing is soulful and evocative and she is passionate, truthful and writes from the heart. Working with Jess is not only a good investment in your business but also in yourself and your confidence.”
She helped me to voice the real heart of my artisan business. She doesn't accept the stock answers and narrative, instead demanding a deeper level of conversation. Jess guides you through the process with kindness and a steely determination that only a Feral Writer can!"
As a creative she weaves magic through words and their emotion but as a coach she delivers so much more. Deeply excavating the soul of her client, she pushes you to confront your demons, to nurture your gifts and reinvent your offering. Jess pushes you past your boundaries in the gentlest of ways and you come out the other side: unrecognisable and attuned to your true value.”
