Welcome to Jess in thee Nest 🪺

Hey girl, hey! I’m Jess! I’m a coach, writer, mama, founder of Thee Novel Nest and the voice behind Jess in thee Nest podcast.

I created this space is for women like me in transition, for writers finding their voice, and anyone learning how to trust the process in every season of life.

Here on Lemon8, you’ll find encouragement, writing insights, and honest conversations.

2/6 Edited to

As someone who has navigated multiple life transitions, I truly resonate with the mission behind Thee Novel Nest. Jess’s approach to coaching and storytelling is not just about writing; it’s a holistic experience that embraces personal growth and faith. What I appreciate most is the authentic vulnerability she shares—reminding us that trusting the process in every season of life is key. Whether you’re a writer struggling to find your unique voice or a woman facing a major life change, the encouragement and insights offered here can be a powerful source of motivation. From my own experience, engaging with communities that champion honest conversations and practical advice helps lessen the isolation that often accompanies transformation phases. Podcasts like Jess in thee Nest do more than entertain—they inspire action and self-reflection. The emphasis on being a 'coach for women & writers in transition' underscores a deep understanding of both creative and personal challenges. In addition to storytelling techniques, Jess emphasizes the importance of embracing your identity and values, which form the foundation for authentic writing and living. This blend of coaching, faith, and creativity makes Thee Novel Nest a uniquely supportive environment. I encourage anyone looking to grow as a writer or person to explore the insights shared here. It’s like finding a sisterhood that cheers you on while gently guiding you to trust your journey and unfold your story with courage and clarity.
