Description: Has anyone told you to “get off your island”? Have you ever needed a shake-up in your life? Did you think that your life was linear and would go according to plan? Do you know what “emergency brake to a donut” means? How about "the pie is not fixed"? Are you hungry now? Grab a pastry and listen to Jen Hwang speak about listening to her friends’ advice to get off her island and the steps she took to reset her life. Jen dives into what she did to figure out the relationships in her life and how she needed to break lifelong habits. A solo trip to Australia helped her to clear her head and reset. She discovered that she needed to be exemplary for herself. She had to be honest with herself about what she wanted and needed to ask for it. She talks about a quote from a favorite book, Wolfpack, “Be grateful for what you have and demand what you deserve.”Jen Hwang is a Boston-born, South and Midwestern-raised, San Francisco resident. She studied Chemical Engineering and Economics at Northwestern University, back when the Big Ten was only (ahem) 11 schools. She has adventured her way through sales, leadership and executive roles in such industries as luxury consumer goods, digital media, staffing and recruitment tech. Jen has worked in a wide range of environments, including Global 500 and Fortune 500 publicly-traded companies, mid-sized private companies and early-stage startups. She’s obsessed with dogs, sports, wine, and a great farmer’s market.Connect with Jen at https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenhwang/ to learn more about her and her background.Sign up for our newsletter at https://abbraccigroup.com/.
