With over 14 years of experience and 500+ manuscripts under her belt, Jenny shares her journey from self-doubt to self-confidence and how that evolution now helps others succeed. She discusses overcoming procrastination, perfectionism, and fear, and highlights how mindset, habits, and community support are essential for creative growth. Jenny talks about her work guiding writers—especially in historical fiction, fantasy, and romance—and how her newest venture, the Winning Writers Club, helps writers build accountability, confidence, and momentum. Jenny’s story is full of practical advice for beating creative blocks and serves as a reminder that every writer has the potential to move forward by simply starting.

Jenny, 00:31:50, 'Having a real conversation with yourself about who you are and why you are that way can really help you find the confidence to overcome some of those sabotages and do what you really want to do.' Jenny, 00:36:06, 'Sometimes when you tell somebody what you’re doing and they’re not in the know, they can say things that discourage you, even if they don’t mean to.'

Jenny, 00:48:21, 'If you don’t start, you’ve got nothing. So get started. Make a consistent effort to write. Make a commitment to yourself to reach that goal.'

Powerful Quotes from the Episode Chris Davis, 00:05:36, "Jess and I had some long conversations. We spoke to family and friends, we prayed about it really hard, and we made the decision we were going to just give it a try and see what happens. At the end of the day, I can always go back to being an engineer if I want to, but we didn't want to get into our 60s and look back and have regrets about what we could have done. What would life have been like if we had chased that dream? We sat down and figured out what sacrifices we needed to make, and we made them. Here we are today." Chris Davis, 00:09:07, "When it's late nights, when it feels like everything is caving in around you, it's about digging down deep, coming up with the energy, and trying to find the wisdom to get through it." Chris Davis, 00:16:12, "Getting to know the guys and girls that work with us personally—asking them how their kids are doing, how their weekend was, and just showing them that they have value at Davis Electric." Chris Davis, 00:21:24, "The biggest thing is being able to take the kids to work with me some days. That really means a lot to me, and I enjoy being able to bring them with me, show them what we do, show them what I do. They find a lot of enjoyment out of it, and they love helping and working. They really have a lot of fun when we do that. Plus, they make a little bit of money, so they're happy about it." Chris Davis, 00:24:58, "I'm going to walk out and keep going. That has been a huge lesson to learn. Running a business, you can scare yourself out of success. That pressure and stress can get to you, and you can just say, 'Nope, I don't want to do it,' and you quit too early. For Jess and me, learning to keep stepping forward in faith that our sidewalk or whatever is still there—that's been huge."
