Jenna Bridgers came into my life when I needed her the most. She has been a faithful friend to me throughout this past year of grad school! 

She is a newly minted therapist with a background in storytelling, systems thinking, and late-night kitchen table conversations. After returning to grad school later in life, she brings a grounded, reflective presence to her clinical work—shaped by lived experience, curiosity, and a deep belief in personal reinvention. 

In this episode, we talk about the path to becoming a therapist, growing up in the 1980s, and how early relationships with food and body image quietly shape her work today.

I love this woman. She is also married and a mother to three!
