BEST MOMENTS
‘There’s no hierarchy to trauma, everybody’s is very very different, no one wins at trauma, it’s not a competition.’
‘I was a serial monogamist. I went from relationship to relationship to relationship because I felt that if I was alone I would always be alone.’
‘Becoming stronger in a video game made me strong enough to get a divorce, to be able to work on myself and not just put everything into others.’
‘Now when my partner (who I love) fights, I realise I’m not fighting with him, I’m fighting with an emotion that happened when I was 15 or 8 that I never learned how to get through.’

ABOUT THE GUEST
Jenn has a story of her own. As a child, she suffered solitary confinement, physical abuse, mental abuse, sexual abuse, rape, divorce, abortion, cutting, and suicide attempts. Her turbulent background has forged a path to help those who are suffering, ignored and silenced. Sh!t You Don’t Want to Talk About is a place people can come to find hope and healing, to know they are not alone, and to finally be heard.
Clearly, Jenn’s been through plenty of sh!t most people probably don’t want to even acknowledge, let alone talk about. She thought she’d dealt with her past, but brain surgery in November 2020 unleashed a tsunami of memories that couldn’t be ignored. Working through trauma, depression, anxiety, bipolar type 2, and ADHD will be a lifelong journey. Jenn strives to break the stigma of Sh!t You Don't Talk About and turn it into Sh!t 2 Talk About.
