What if the life you’re living… isn’t actually the one you want?

In this episode of Girl, Why Not You?, Jennie sits down with divorce attorney, speaker, and author Renee Bower to unpack the pressure so many women feel to be the “good girl”—polite, agreeable, and always putting others first.

But here’s the truth: that conditioning is keeping you stuck.

Renee shares her own journey through two divorces and how she moved from shame and self-doubt to reclaiming her voice, her power, and her life. Together, we dive into what it really takes to break free from people-pleasing and start making decisions that actually align with who you are.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Why “good girl” conditioning is exhausting—and how to break it
• The power of hard conversations and setting real boundaries
• Letting go of fear, guilt, and the need for approval
• How to stop avoiding change and start taking action
• Renee’s simple framework: Stop. Drop. Roll.

This is your reminder that bravery isn’t something you’re born with—it’s something you build.

And the longer you avoid the hard conversations, the longer you stay stuck in a life that doesn’t feel right.

So if you’ve been feeling pulled toward something more… this is your sign to stop settling and start choosing yourself.

Because the question is—and always will be—girl… why not you?

What if your rock bottom… was actually the beginning of everything?

In this episode of Girl, Why Not You?, Jennie sits down with Jamie Maltabes, founder of Infinite Medical Group, to talk about what it really looks like to go from addiction and chaos… to building a 7-figure business and a life you’re proud of.

At 25, Jamie hit a breaking point—battling addiction, eating disorders, and living a double life she could no longer sustain. Choosing sobriety became the turning point that changed everything.

From there, she didn’t just rebuild… she created something powerful.

Starting with a single machine in her basement, Jamie grew Infinite Medical Group into a thriving medical aesthetics business with over 500 recurring members—without a medical background, and without waiting until she felt ready.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Turning your lowest moments into your biggest breakthroughs
• Why there is no “perfect” timeline for success
• Letting go of perfection and taking messy action
• Building a business from nothing (even when you feel unqualified)
• What to know about the aesthetics industry and finding providers you can trust

This conversation is your reminder that your past does not define you… and you are never too far gone to build something incredible.

So if you’ve been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or like you’ve wasted time—this is your sign.

Because the question is—and always will be—girl… why not you?

You don’t need a perfect plan to start a business.

In this episode of Girl, Why Not You?, Jennie Blackwood sits down with Nikki Lindgren, founder of a marketing agency, to talk about building a business without a clear roadmap — and why waiting for the “right time” keeps so many people stuck.

Nikki’s journey took her from small-town Minnesota to corporate roles at brands like Pottery Barn and World Market, before pivoting into SEO and digital marketing and eventually launching her own agency.

Starting just before the pandemic, she faced early challenges like team turnover and inconsistent revenue — but kept going.

Today, she leads a growing team and has built her business by doing what most people won’t:

starting before everything is figured out.

In this episode, we cover:

• Starting a business without a plan
• Taking risks and pivoting your career
• The MVP (Minimum Viable Product) mindset
• Growing from freelancer to agency owner
• Why coaching and mentorship matter

If you’ve been waiting to feel “ready,” this is your sign to start anyway.
