12. Burnout, Pivots & Building With Purpose: The Bold Business Journey with Jen Kinal
What if success wasn’t about adding more, but finally learning to let go?
In this fun, heartfelt, and honest episode, I’m joined by my bracelet sister and soul-led businesswoman Jennifer Kinal—a social media strategist, marketing expert, and event consultant known for her bold pivots and heart-first leadership.
We talk about building businesses that actually feel good, and what it takes to release what no longer aligns, even when it’s something you once loved. Jen shares her journey of reinventing herself after losing her event planning business during the pandemic, starting over from scratch, and the unexpected freedom that came from making hard, courageous choices.
This conversation is packed with honesty, strategy, and inspiration for any creative or business owner trying to do things their own way.
In this episode, we cover:
Jen’s story of navigating business loss and finding a new path
The hard decision to let go of her Bold Founders community
How simplifying her business brought back her Joy and energy
The power of pricing, self-worth, and the clients who’ll say yes
How she grew her agency from scratch
Tips for showing up on social media without the stress
Some behind-the-scenes magic of the Be Bold Conference
Why Joy is essential for long-term success (and how to get it back)
