Welcome to If Jenifer Just Applied Herself, a podcast about relationships, desire, confidence, creativity, aging and the lovely chaos of being human. Join me for candid conversations with men and women about the experiences that shape us, the patterns we struggle to break and the courage it takes to reinvent ourselves at any age. Expect thoughtful insights, a little irreverent humor and frank, shame-free discussions about subjects we don't always talk about openly. Because life is complicated, people are fascinating and I promise it won't be boring. Use the form on this page to pitch your story ideas, or submit a question for Jenifer or one of her guests. 

In this introductory trailer, I gauge how much I like you based on your response to conversations about sex and pumpkin spice lattes, share the story behind the show’s name, blame everything on childhood trauma and preview candid, shame-free conversations about reinvention, relationships, confidence, creativity, health, aging and just how much we hate social media trolls who rage at us in all caps. I’m finally applying myself—and I promise it won’t be boring.
