Summary

If you’ve ever looked at your business, your brand, even your personal relationships, and thought, “This used to feel right… but now I’m not so sure,” you are not alone, and you are not broken. Jen Hatmaker is no stranger to the hard and holy work of reinvention. She’s a bestselling author of 14 books (including four New York Times bestsellers), the host of the award-winning For the Love podcast, and a beloved leader to a community of over 1.6 million. But her newest book, AWAKE, isn’t about business strategy. It’s about what happens when your identity, your roles, and your life fall apart… and how to rebuild from a more honest, more aligned place. Jen walks us through what she calls a Midlife Renaissance, not a crisis. It’s a powerful season of reassessing everything you’ve been told about womanhood, worth, work, and success… and reimagining a life and business that truly feels like you. If you’re an entrepreneur navigating change, if you’re pivoting your purpose, or if you’re wondering what stays and what goes in this next chapter… click play.

1:27.2	been there.
1:28.2	Maybe you're wondering if you can ever get ahead or if building any kind of financial
