In this powerful return episode, Dr. Jennifer Gardella, entrepreneur, educator, author, speaker, and social media consultant, joins SolFul Connections once again, but this time with a whole new layer to her story.

When Jen first appeared on SolFul Connections, she shared her courageous journey of surviving and escaping domestic violence. Since then, she’s continued to rise becoming a Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses alum, speaking for an NFL team, and making major strides in her business and advocacy work.

What sparked this latest conversation? A moment of "messiness"—the kind we often shy away from, but that can actually serve as a launching pad. During a tough season, I reminded Jen that chaos can be a sign you're about to level up. And she did. In this episode, we unpack how that messy middle often holds the most power.

We talk about:

• ​Jen’s recent milestones and personal evolution
• ​Her work with StartUp Bucks, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting entrepreneurs
• ​Her unique approach to social media consulting and client partnerships
• ​The philosophies that guide her life and business
• ​How she cultivates joy—even in the midst of challenge
• ​What’s next on the horizon for her

Whether you’re in the thick of a transition or feeling like things are falling apart, this conversation is a heartfelt reminder that sometimes, that’s exactly where transformation begins.
