Jen Next Door Podcast
Welcome to Jen Next Door, the podcast where business isn’t just about the bottom line—it’s about making a difference! I'm Jennifer, and I hope this show feels like a casual chat with your friendly neighbor. I am super curious about the stories of local business owners and entrepreneurs who are making a difference through social and environmental impact.
Twice a month we go in-depth, highlighting the challenges, successes, and innovations driving their ventures. From sustainable startups to businesses changing lives, Jen Next Door celebrates the movers and shakers who are doing good work.
Beyond the inspiring stories, expect motivational deep dives, practical tips and tricks, and plenty of laughs as I unpack the ups and downs of entrepreneurship. Whether you're a seasoned business owner, an aspiring changemaker, or just someone who loves hearing about the power of community this podcast is your go-to resource for insight, impact, and inspiration.
So pull up a chair—I'm tackling it all, and saving a spot for you! Let's learn together!
