Hey love, I’m Jenn!
People look at me now, wife, mama, grandmother, CEO of a women’s lifestyle brand, and they think, of course she gets to live like this. Of course she gets to talk about fullness and rebellion and creating a life you actually want.
Real talk, none of this was handed to me. Every ounce of “privilege” I have has teeth marks in it. It was fought for, cried over, clawed back. I have lost, rebuilt, unraveled, and started over more times than I can count. And yet here I am, not just surviving, but curating the next 44 years of my life with audacity, sensuality, humor, and joy.
Clearly, I wasn’t always this woman. In high school, I wanted to be a fashion designer, a photographer, a writer. And then life came for me, like it does for all of us. Traumas to face, bills to pay, losses to grieve, children to raise, marriages to hold together. I left my dreams in a box marked silly girl stuff, and I got busy being responsible.
At 44, I’m done apologizing for wanting it all. I’m coming back for the style, the words, the art, the wild expression. I’m bringing my whole messy, sexy, sacred, complicated self to the table: the journalist seeking the truth, the writer expressing her soul, the photographer exploring through the lens, the therapist walking you through trauma, the woman cursing through the contradictions, the wife flirting across the room, the grandmother rocking a baby and a bodysuit in the same afternoon.
I’m not a brand. I’m a whole damn human.
Soft and hard. Calm and chaotic. Demure and provocative. Sometimes a little vulgar. Always real.
I created The Evolution of HER,
not to build some polished image of perfection, but to remind us all that we can start again. That we can curate lives we actually love, not the ones handed to us by family, culture, or obligation. That our next chapter can be wilder, freer, more alive than the one before.
This season of my life…I call it 44-to-Life.
It’s not a midlife crisis, it’s a midlife awakening. It’s me reclaiming the girl who wanted more, honoring the woman who’s walked through fire, and daring the rest of my life to be as big, bold, and beautiful as I can dream it.
So if you’re looking for the professional bio, here it is, quick and dirty:
BA in Journalism, MS in Clinical Psychology. I’ve been a political journalist and worked in finance. I’ve spent the last 15 years in mental health walking people through their deepest work as a licensed therapist. If that’s the door you’re here to open,
If you want the whole story,
where grit and grace sit at the same table. Where the 3 a.m. spiral can live right next to the belly laugh that saves the day. Where beauty and bullshit aren’t enemies, just part of the same wild, imperfect ride.
Pull up a chair.
Let’s get into the messy, magical middle together.
