She’s insufferable and wildly inauthentic. Just got a deal with Oprah to talk about loving our bodies (which she NEVER talked about before) and now effing Anne Lamott, a good novelist!, was on her stupid podcast. It’s just a wonderful thread hating on her. Welcome.
Ah, ok. I know someone like this irl who tried and failed to be an influencer and she is also pretty hate-able
Jen is a has been living on the fumes of modest success a decade ago. Her whole business model these days is milking as much money as she possible can from vulnerable women in the name of “serving them”. She can’t even celebrate turning 50 without making it a cash grab. What’s doubly annoying about her though is how smug and performative and sanctimonious she is. This coupled with outrageous phoniness. An example was a month ago sharing the stage with Oprah about body wellness acting like she’s led some sort of “conversation” about it when
she’s posted, at least twice, about sitting next to substantial strangers at airports and on airplanes seeing them as “human pillows”. Or once writing a book about “combating excess” and being a patron saint of anti-materialism but now constantly shilling things like over-priced skin care regimes and cheap fast fashion and medicinal gummies and personally accumulating so much crap over the year she needs to hire an industrial dumpster to take it all away. She did this last year too.
In top of this Jen is haughty and proud and has zero self-awareness.
Deep down I think she knows she’s a fraud though and it comes out sideways from time to time. The mask slips.
