Let’s Meet Jen
Life doesn’t always go as planned, but what if the detour is the way?
Jen is a keynote speaker in Canada who helps individuals and organizations reframe challenges into opportunities for growth. Through powerful storytelling and a creative lens shaped by her background as a photographer and educator, Jen guides audiences to lead with curiosity, courage, and purpose.
Her perspective was forever changed just 18 days into motherhood, when her newborn was diagnosed with congenital heart disease. Fear could have defined that chapter, but instead, Jen turned to creativity to find resilience, clarity, and meaning, a process that now shapes her work as a speaker.
Today, Jen speaks to audiences navigating change, stepping into leadership, and learning to trust their voice. As a leadership speaker bringing lived experience to the stage, she connects deeply with those seeking clarity and momentum in uncertain moments.
For organizations looking to hire a speaker for an event, Jen offers an engaging, grounded, and human approach to growth and perspective.
