Jamie Knight is the founder of Career Brilliance and the voice behind Jamie on Purpose, two platforms dedicated to helping people build careers and lives that feel both successful and sustainable.
Through Career Brilliance, Jamie mentors early-career professionals who want to fast-track their path to leadership and enjoy their workday more. With Jamie on Purpose, she shares reflections on wellness, intentional living, and softer ambition, drawing from her own journey with chronic illness.
