She loves speaking and is a solo parent to 11-year-old daughter Rose.

What is the #1 question you get asked the most? What is your answer?

How did you get so lucky to have founded Happy Hair Brush?

Luck is actually doing a whole lot of work that nobody sees, no-one cares about and being crazily immersed in your project so that you constantly think, dream and take daily action on. Luck is created when you do all the little things that no-one cares about because it’s the detail, the insight, the connecting of collected knowledge and wisdom that’s not obvious on the surface, that gives you ALL the advantage.

When you work with Jen you will come away with 3 key takeaways:

  1. Pick something you would willingly do for free because you believe in it so much
  2. Work out how to make that commercially viable
  3. Surround yourself with people that allow you to be a special kind of crazy about that thing and immerse yourself in it and DON’T EVER STOP !

CEO & Founder

Taking the first 17 years of her coaching and consulting background, Jen applied all of her skills and passion into Happy Hair Brush. A business that was initially a side hustle to maybe pay for school fees and stop the morning battles with her daughter to a multi-million dollar enterprise with a global mission of changing the narrative people have about loving their hair and brushing it. Jen supports women of all types, backgrounds, ages and abilities to follow their dreams and play a bigger game. E-Com isn't easy, but all things that are worthwhile never are easy. Jen can share where her roadblocks have been, what she’s seen and learned along the way and also provide insights into the areas of your business that could be tweaked or leveraged.
