The Woman Code feature is our way to get to know the life, insight, and wisdom of every woman one post at a time.
Our first woman code feature is Jenna!
thequeenkalani: Tell me a little bit about yourself.
Jenna: I’m 24 years old living in St. Louis, MO. I grew up in the Chicago area, so between my family and work, I visit the Windy City once a month or so.
thequeenkalani: What do you do for a living?
Jenna: I’m a Public Relations Specialist at Unity Hospice of Greater St. Louis. Many people aren’t familiar with hospice – it’s a sector of healthcare that focuses on end of life care and delivering the highest quality of life to patients with terminal illnesses.
thequeenkalani: What are a few of your hobbies?
Jenna: I have 2 dogs, so they’re my main hobbies. When I do have free time I like to write, and especially read.
thequeenkalani: What is your favorite book and why?
Jenna: Reading is huge hobby of mine, so I can’t say – there’s too many! I’m a sucker for books that turn into movies (i.e. The Help, Hunger Games, Marley & Me). But one book that sticks out in mind is The Kite Runner. Also, my newfound favorites are Gone Girl and The Good Nurse.
thequeenkalani: Any projects you’ve been working on?
Jenna: Though this may not be considered a “creative project,” my current project is to experience every park in St. Louis (this ties in with my dogs) and to experience a new restaurant/cafe/bar in different neighborhoods of St. Louis.
thequeenkalani: What are some pieces of advice you would give a young girl?
Jenna: Don’t ever become jaded.
Strive to be intuitive and motivated at all times, and especially strong in your own mind and personality – don’t let others depict those things for you.
Allow others to inspire you to be a better you.
I stress “You” because it’s important to know You, as You are.
Never become dependent on someone else.
