“SOMETIMES FATE IS LIKE A SMALL SANDSTORM THAT CHANGES DIRECTIONS”
~ Haruki Murakami
For my fiftieth episode of Going There, I had the utmost pleasure of journeying with Rachel Allen, a word wizard who overcame many of life’s biggest challenges and discovered herself in all of her shining glory at the end of it all.
We discuss how she navigates through the emotional labor, grief, and guilt caused by the loss of her long-term relationship, her family, and the life that she thought she knew.
At the end of the episode, we celebrate what a badass bitch Rachel is through it all and what a gift these grueling experiences really are.
Join us to hear the inspirational tale of how losing it all can help you find yourself!

Well hey there,
I am Bridgerton steamy sex scene level OBSESSED with helping women figure out exactly why they're so checked out and lie awake at night thinking this is not the life they imagined and wondering how the hell they got here and do they need to burn it all down and start over?
I'm Jen.
because that's a pretty exhausting way to live
Instead, I help them get clear on what a peeyourpants future means for them, get super curious and look at their lives objectively (because - hello - it's hella hard to identify what to change when we're knee deep in our emotions), decide which changes will have the biggest impact, and take intentional and thoughtful actions without having to burn down their entire world.
And because I'm a professional bossypants (actual title) and have the sense of humor of a 12-year-old boy - I'll get you there faster and with lots of inappropriate laughter while we do the deep inner work.
