In a world where most entrepreneurs pick a lane and stay there, Jessica Blake defies every convention. Raised in Durham, North Carolina, she went from managing global teams in corporate America to building multi-national ventures and producing high-impact content across 18 countries. Her story is about more than business—it’s about building freedom, by design.
Corporate Ascent: From Entry-Level to International Command
Blake’s career took off fast. In her twenties, she climbed the corporate ladder to become Assistant Vice President at iQor—leading high-performance teams and eventually overseeing a 200+ person offshore account.
“I remember walking into the office one morning and realizing—this was no longer about KPIs. I was shaping careers, energy, lives,” Blake recalls.
While living abroad, that overseas assignment shifted her perspective. It exposed her to global operations, cross-cultural leadership, and the deeper human side of management—planting the seeds for everything she would build next.
Entrepreneurial Power Moves: 70 Countries, Two Retail Giants
Blake didn’t walk away from corporate—she leveled up. Her next chapter? Founding Fortress Network, a marketing company that scaled to 70 countries, proving she could architect growth on a global level.
Then came Sea Beauty, a wellness brand that broke into two of the most competitive retail giants in America: Nordstrom and Walmart. That kind of shelf space isn’t luck—it’s execution, insight, and brand clarity at scale.
Creative Authority: Personally Appearing in 700+ Campaigns and Counting
Today, Blake is known for her creative firepower—having delivered over 700 ads, commercials, and print campaigns for brands around the globe.
“One brand told me a video I made brought in their top-performing ad of the year,” she says. “That’s when I realized: when creativity meets clarity of purpose, it moves people—and markets.”
Her work spans industries, cultures, and mediums—but the message is consistent: build with heart, perform with precision.
The Core Philosophy: Freedom, Engineered
What ties it all together? Freedom—not just for herself, but for others.
“At every stage, I’ve been driven by a single goal: to build freedom,” Blake says. “Ownership, impact, self-designed living. That’s real wealth.”
Whether managing teams, launching products, or creating content, Blake’s through-line is clear: empower others to take control of their lives by first taking control of your own.
The Edge: Range, Realness, Results
What sets Blake apart isn’t just her resume—it’s her range. Corporate strategist. Global founder. Product creator. Creative director. She’s played every position, and played to win.
“I lead with intuition and lived experience,” she explains. “What I share isn’t theory—it’s from the front lines.”
In a landscape filled with polished facades, Blake stands out for one reason: it’s all real.
The Mission Ahead: Platform, Power, Purpose
Now, she’s building a media and brand development company to amplify the voices of purpose-driven founders, creators, and conscious businesses. More wellness ventures. More mentorship. More market-shifting content.
“I’m blending strategy, storytelling, and soul,” Blake says. “Because that’s what the next generation of entrepreneurship demands.”
Jessica Blake isn’t just building businesses. She’s building a blueprint—one that proves when you align vision with action and lead with purpose, freedom scales. Globally.
