Jen can tailor a session to your event or deliver one of her keynote messages:

This is not your mother's midlife crisis. This is your renaissance.

Midlife isn't a crisis to survive, it's a second coming-of-age to inhabit. Jen dismantles the story that midlife is the beginning of the end and replaces it with the permission, language, and clarity to build what comes next. Honest, funny, and the kind of talk that follows you home.

For: women's conferences, midlife and wellness summits, hospital foundation events, corporate women's programming, retreats

The moment your old playbook stops working isn't a crisis. It's the proving ground.

Every leader hits the moment when the strategies that got them here stop working. Jen reframes that disorienting moment as the exact conditions that produce the best leadership of your career, a human framework for leading through uncertainty without losing yourself or your people.

For: corporate leadership events, executive forums, HR conferences, organizational retreats

You can't pour from a cup that has nothing left in it.

Exhaustion isn't a sign you're working hard enough, it's a sign something is broken. Jen makes a direct case for a different model of leadership: built on self-trust, clear boundaries, and the willingness to defend both. Not work-life balance. Real sustainability.

For: women in leadership, burnout-prone industries, HR conferences, ERG events

Sometimes the thing has to fall apart to be rebuilt.

In a time when so many are questioning inherited beliefs and reimagining what they believe, Jen offers a compassionate framework for what comes after the unraveling, how to move through doubt without losing meaning, and rebuild something more expansive, resilient, and true.

For: faith communities, spiritually curious audiences, churches navigating change, retreats

The worst thing that happened to you is not the end of your story.

Adversity isn't optional — what you do with it is. Jen has lived through the kind of loss that reorders everything, and sat with thousands of people doing the same. No toxic positivity, no silver-lining shortcuts. Just the real story of what it looks like to find your footing after the ground shifts, and why the people who come through hardest often find something on the other side they never would have looked for otherwise.

For: universities and commencements, corporate all-hands, community events, broad audiences
