Writing about life in the middle — the space between the life you planned and the life you're building now.
So — what do I want to do with the life I have now?
That question is where Letter from Jen lives.
Not answers.
Not five steps.
Just honest observations about caregiving, work, grief, home, money, and the quiet process of rebuilding a meaningful life — written by someone living it alongside you, not ahead of you.
This isn't exactly where
I thought I'd be.
What you'll find here:
Essays on the ordinary, unglamorous middle of midlife — caregiving for aging parents, changing family roles, financial rebuilding, identity, and starting over without starting from scratch.
No coaching. No five-step plans. Just what I'm noticing as I live through it — in case you recognize yourself in it too.
