She’s a coach for women who are ready to create a life that reflects their needs, without feeling guilty. We met because we are both Fair Play Facilitators.

EP 262: Some Life Advice 15 Years Beyond 40
100% Guilt-Free Self-Care
Show notes: Approximately 20,075 days ago I was born. In case you don’t have a calculator handy, that is double nickels AKA FIFTY-FREAKING-FIVE years old. It feels completely bonkers because it doesn’t feel like that much time has gone by. Everyone I have met recently is in the 38-48 year range and that got me thinking about how much my life has changed for the better since my late 30s. At 39 I started blogging. At 40 I started teaching yoga. At 41 I became a mama. At 42 learned about invisible labor, domestic load & inequity in marriage At 43 I resigned...

EP 261: Ten Things My Mom Was Right About
100% Guilt-Free Self-Care
Show notes: My mom died 10 years ago today. We weren’t close, but she was my biggest cheerleader. The older I get the more I understand who she was and how much of the time in history she was born into really shaped who she got to be. My mom couldn’t wear pants to her segregated school, got married at 20 and had her first child at 21. I came along right before she was 25. She was on the younger side of average at the time, but was relieved to be out of her parent’s house. In the early 1960s women then didn’t have a lot of choices. Options for work were...

EP 260: When the House is on Fire Don’t Wait to Help Put It Out - with Liz Minnella
100% Guilt-Free Self-Care
Show notes: Are you waiting for someone to choose you? Are you holding back because you think you aren’t ready? Are you waiting until you have enough experience or go back to school? Are you worried you’ll get it wrong? I hear these fears all the time from women. They want to do something that makes a difference in the world and they get stuck because the little voice in their head telling stories about why now isn’t the right time, they aren’t the right person and they stay stuck in the loop of inaction. This week on the podcast I am sharing a very special interview with someone who...

EP 259: Calm The Chaos: Part 3
100% Guilt-Free Self-Care
Show notes: If I were in charge of how the world operates, I would definitely sleep as little as possible, stay horizontal in my soft pants, drink caffeine in the AM, and booze it up at night while eating BBQ potato chips and candy corn and feel FANTASTIC! But alas, I am not in charge. Instead we have to subscribe to human biology 101 or feel like a bucket of hot garbage or rusty buckets of bones. Or Boooooth. 😭 I regret to inform you no matter what is happening in the world, we have a lot of control over how we feel inside our bodies and in our lives in this utterly bonkers world. What we...

EP 257: Calm The Chaos: Part 1
100% Guilt-Free Self-Care
Show notes: Cops and vampires have permission to enter. Crazy too. Someone recently said that since the plan is to overwhelm and exhaust us into giving up, we need to look at our own behavior in order to survive this administration. The goal is to watch the rollercoaster without getting on the rollercoaster. Watching a rollercoaster feels way different than riding a rollercoaster, doesn’t it? This metaphor helps to capture the concept of equanimity really clearly. Being calm during a crisis is what we practice in the . {Enroll today with code 2025EARLY to save $600. Payment plans are...

Meet Jenny.
Genevieve “Jenny” Dreizen, Co-Founder and COO of Fresh Starts Registry, is an operations specialist, marketing professional, and modern-day etiquette expert.
On the heels of her sister Olivia’s divorce in 2020, prompting Olivia to have an ‘aha moment’ when she realized we needed to reframe the narrative around big life changes, and her own decade-long relationship ending Olivia and Jenny founded Fresh Starts Registry, a first-of-its-kind platform built to support those going through brave and bold changes, such as divorce, job changes, coming out, living through grief, and more, by revolutionizing the art of starting again.
Jenny lives to remind people that we create the rules we live by all on our own and with our own happiness and joy at the center of it all, as illustrated through both her personal and professional endeavors. Her career has spanned multiple industries, informing her expertise across operations, business, marketing, and etiquette.
Jenny is passionate about creating usable, efficient, and beautiful systems to run Fresh Starts Registry to maintain their Experts, Support Specialists, and Freshies. She pulls in all of her knowledge from the various verticals where her expertise has flourished to enrich the experience of each person Fresh Starts touches.
Born and raised on Long Island, New York, Jenny now resides in Scotland with her husband, whom she eloped with in 2023.

She hopes to bring joy to others, make sure everyone feels seen in every aspect of their lives, and remind every person she supports that there are no rules to living a fulfilled life.
