growing, laughing, and totally googling my life choices. building a better life one "oops" at a time.
hi, i’m jen. i’m on a mission to build a healthier more intentional life – one where my cardiovascular health isn’t gasping for help, my mental health feels supported, and my stress levels finally stop acting like they’re training for a marathon. i’m learning to choose calm over chaos, create a real work/life balance, travel more, and eat in a way that doesn’t involve my entire personality being snacks.
i’m sharing this journey not just for myself, but for anyone who wants a relatable, honest, space to grow alongside someone who is trying, learning and occasionally tripping over her own wellness goals. with a heart full of empathy – and a sense of humor that helps me survive the plot twists – i hope to mentor, connect with, and inspire others to build a gentler life, one step (or one deep breath) at a time.
