About

Hi, I’m Jolyn Janis

A Real-World Marketing Unicorn

What I Do

Writer, creative director, and builder of stories, strategies, and strange little worlds that help people see themselves and the world more clearly.

I work at the intersection of creativity, business, and emotional truth. Writing books. Designing brands. Building campaigns. Studying why humans do what they do and why so many smart, capable people still feel stuck.

How I Got Here

I believe living a life of magic is our birthright. Not something you earn or fix your way into.

In marketing, there is a mythical person who can do it all. Strategy and story. Vision and execution. They are kinda rare, they call them unicorns. That has been my training ground.

I am fluent across strategy, copywriting, branding, web design, storytelling, direct response, data insights, social media, customer journeys, team leadership, AI integration, lead generation, video production, and sales funnels. Not as theory. As practice.

Why It Matters

I make stories for feelers, tools for builders, and space for people who sense there is more going on here than anyone ever taught them how to name.

I believe your inner world is your sharpest tool and your smartest ally. When you learn how to work with it, what you make feels easier, lands harder, and lasts longer.

Crystal knuckles. With receipts.

Ten Things About Jolyn

  1. Triathlon medals I designed were reportedly stolen by pirates while shipping across the Indian Ocean. I imagine those three thousand medallions are now currency on an isolated island.

  2. A series of logos I designed are “roving” around on Mars. So technically, I'm an intergalactic designer.

  3. I hold Advanced Nitrox and Freediving certifications. If I could grow a mermaid tail, I totally would.

  4. I was invited to audition for the lead in a James Cameron feature film. That’s the Titanic/Avatar/Terminator guy.

  5. I swam competitively since I was five years old. In a big family, when one kid joins the swim team, we all join the swim team.

  6. I photograph waves and am developing a series called “Wavespiration.” The ocean makes most of the creative decisions and I just show up with a camera.

  7. I’m trained to Level 3 in Krav Maga hand-to-hand combat. Martial arts changes how you approach absolutely everything.

  8. I taught myself how to draw for my book, “Poems for Breakfast.” I started sketching, kept going, and now it's a four-book series.

  9. I've run Zoom calls with Neil deGrasse Tyson (Cosmos, StarTalk). Building community creates very interesting partnerships.

  10. I used to lead adventure travel trips for teenagers – backpacking and river rafting. Nature extracts authenticity and the rest is too heavy to haul up a mountain anyway.
