About Jess Kirby
Welcome to A Common Thread
Hi! I’m Jess Kirby, an ex-fashion and beauty influencer who left it all behind to start an anti-consumption newsletter about buying less stuff, and pursuing a more meaningful and intentional life.
At a time when so many of us seek community and connection, I hope this newsletter can serve as a place to support that.
I walked away from influencing and paid partnerships because I was tired of selling people things they didn’t need and that I knew wouldn’t bring them the joy and fulfillment they were seeking. This newsletter never takes money from brands and I don’t use affiliate links. Your paid subscriptions help cover the cost of this work.
