Advertising executive by trade; published author and podcast host by passion. Jennifer Villamil wrote her first book, “What a Year, a COVID Journal” as a way to document moving her wedding multiple times and reevaluating her life during the pandemic. This journey of self-discovery inspired the launch of My Almost Midlife Crisis Podcast in January 2021 as a way to come to terms with the approaching middle age and all the emotions that come with it. During this podcast, Jennifer reframes the midlife crisis from a negative experience to an opportunity for positive change in our lives with the goal of building a community through self-reflection and motivation to make the necessary changes so the next half of our lives are better than the last.
