Jenn Collins on Mama Needs Self-Care

Self-care. We know we need it, but we don't always know how to do it in a way that doesn't feel selfish.

Jenn Collins from Mama Needs Box joins us to help us solve that problem and make it a natural part of our mom life.

Meet our Guest Jenn:

Jenn Collins is the Chief Self-Care Officer at and founder of the Mama Needs subscription box.

Married to her high school sweetheart and mama to three amazing kids, Jenn and her family live in North Carolina where they still can't believe that they get to see mountains every day.
