Welcome back to Honing In and to my interview with Jen Carrington.
Jen Carrington is a gentle business coach and specializes in supporting small business owners to build and run simple and spacious businesses where they can honor their humanness whilst also making a steady and thriving income.
Jen has spent the past decade working with hundreds of clients as they bridge the gap towards their version of more flexibility, ease, and intentional growth in their business and has designed her business to only ask very part time hours from her each week whilst also being the breadwinner for her family so that she can prioritize the needs of her health as a human who lives in a chronically ill body.
Jen lives in Manchester, UK with her husband, son, two cats and their dog and is always happiest when curled up with a good book.
Here are some of the things we discuss:
- How Jen created a business that centers her humanness
- Accepting the season of life that our bodies, minds, and capacity ask of us
- Ethical approaches to marketing rooted in long-term relationships
- Decentering work in favor of healing, rest, and romantasy books
