[Jennifer Griffith](https://www.linkedin.com/in/byjennifergriffith/), tech sales expert come author, now working at Post Hill Press, shares how her family history and career pivot have helped her rethink vulnerability, motherhood, and forgiveness. Jennifer explains why looking back with curiosity can be the fastest path to moving forward with clarity. We also explore what it really means to understand where we come from and how our parents’ untold stories shape our identity.
Key Takeaways:
- 00:00 Introduction.
- 01:36 Jennifer follows her passion for writing after spending nearly 20 years in tech sales.
- 04:37 Her dad works hard, stays honest, and says a lot by saying very little.
- 05:41 Knowing who a mother is before she becomes a parent shapes who we are.
- 06:46 Nearly 10 years at Salesforce teaches storytelling, listening, and curiosity.
- 08:07 Three years of IVF and two miscarriages shift priorities, leading to change.
- 10:57 Generational shifts and invisible boundaries keep parents from sharing vulnerability.
- 13:40 How Jennifer’s book will help her son understand himself better.
- 15:19 Jennifer creates a pandemic-era podcast exploring how parents shape us.
> “Technology, sales, and writing are more intrinsically linked than you would think. They're deeply rooted in storytelling, and if you’re a good storyteller, you can be a good sales executive.”
