Detach your Identity from your Role.

Jen Ables built a nonprofit that changed hundreds of lives, then watched it disappear. Now she helps audiences answer the question that changed everything: if I'm no longer the title I hold, who am I?

Signature Talk

Who Am I Anymore? The Identity Reset Experience.

Using an original Roles vs. Character Traits framework (and a healthy dose of humor), Jen guides audiences through a live, interactive experience that separates who they are from what they do. Available as a 30–45 minute keynote or interactive workshop.

What audiences leave with

A personal character-traits inventory that survives any role change, clarity on where role and identity have fused, a portable identity anchor for high-stress seasons, and practical ways to bring more of their authentic self into their current role.

Who it's for

Corporate teams and conferences, women's leadership events, burnout and wellness summits, career transition programs, and nonprofit or mission-driven organizations.

"You either can't stop laughing or you can hear a pin drop. Jen has the rare quality of weaving vulnerability, resilience, and comedy in a magical way. I can't recommend her enough." Jeff Harry, TEDx Speaker, Forbes / NatGeo / NPR Contributor
