Was it a bad day, or was it a bad five minutes that you milked all day?

Give it a minute or two, five minutes, and then let's go.

We're overcoming. We're talking positively.

It's time to move forward. Next play mentality.

What is going on, everyone? Emily, a body here. You are listening to episode 246 in season 13 of hurdle.

A wellness focus podcast where I connect with everyone from your favorite athletes to top experts and industry CEOs about their highest highs, toughest moments and everything in between.

We all go through hurdles in life, and my goal through these discussions is to empower you to better navigate yours and move with intention so that you can stride toward your own big potential.

And of course, have some fun along the way.

Season 13, like what?

Oh my God, it feels so awesome and crazy and so many emotions saying that, but I am mostly out of all of them,

and I'm so excited to start this season off with her talking about what it was like to make a major pivot.

Once envisioning herself playing in the WNBA, now a content creator, as I said, with millions of followers across YouTube, TikTok and Instagram.

For today's episode, Jenna talks to me about how it felt for her to make a drastic change to dive in wholeheartedly to content creation during the pandemic, leaving her job as a basketball coach and shaking the stigmas she felt surrounded the occupation of creating content to do what she loves to pursue her passion and in the process.

And power so many women everywhere to be fearless, and as she says the mission of her brand game change her, H-E-R, to challenge the norm and change the game.

Jenna talks candidly about some of the double standards that exist when watching and critiquing male versus female athletes.

Plus, Jenna also offers up some really helpful advice for anyone who may be stuck in that negative self talk loop moving on from difficult moments and reaching out toward your big potential.

Again, loved kicking off season 13 with this conversation with Jenna, a huge thank you to her for her time.
