About this listen

This is a podcast hosted by Jen Vrooman where we talk about all of life: the good, the difficult and sometimes the traumatic. Often times, I wonder if other people experience what I experience. In other words, I often ask "Am I really the only one?" This is a space where we can feel more human and less alone as we navigate the beauty, complexity and tragedy life often throws our way. We're all in this together, so we might as well get a little bit honest and help each other through.

  • The Gift Of Finding Best Friends In Your Adult Life with Tracy Gantz
    Jan 10 2026

    I'd love to hear from you!

    In this episode I have a special, funny, and meaningful conversation with one of the best friends I've ever had, Tracy Gantz. We talk about meeting as adults, how we met, how we keep our friendship going despite ever changing life and family schedules, and the beauty, goodness and depth our friendship has added to our lives. Together, through years of intentional work, we're setting new standards for the kinds of relationships we want to welcome in the future, ones built on mutuality, respect, delight, clear communication, non competitiveness, laughter, depth, safety, trust, and ultimately healing.

  • Out Is Better Than Perfect, A Test Recording With My Daughter Maddie
    Jan 6 2026

    I'd love to hear from you!

    One of the goals I had for myself in 2026 was to learn how to have a guest on the podcast. Well, guess what? I did it! I met with three friends who let me know their tips and tricks and kindly guided me toward making this goal a reality. While my first official guest episode comes out soon, my 14 year old daughter Maddie agreed to let me practice with her. I want you to hear this short practice episode, because I want you to be a part of my whole journey, the raw beginning, the ups and downs, and the many successes and failures that are ahead. I'm considering this a success.

  • Taking Our Story More Compassionately and Seriously
    Dec 21 2025

    I'd love to hear from you!

    A new year is approaching. Can you believe it? How was last year? What are you hoping to add or subtract from your life next year and in the years to come? In this episode we explore the practice of pausing, taking stock of, considering and exploring our year, our stories, and our lives for the sake of heading in the direction of freedom, healing and joy. The gentle invitation is to consider how one year of intentional story exploration could impact your life. After all, taking your stories more seriously and compassionately is the most important work you will ever do.
