Welcome back to The Dana Grant Show, where heart-centered conversations meet powerful transformations. This week, Dana sits down with the incredible Jennifer Bailey-Hobbs, a former UK police inspector turned wellness entrepreneur, who shares her journey of reclaiming her life—physically, mentally, and spiritually.
After 30 years in law enforcement, eight spinal surgeries, and a lifelong struggle with self-abandonment and burnout, Jennifer took a bold leap. She left behind security and structure to create a thriving wellness business rooted in breathwork, Reiki, cold plunges, retreats, and radical self-love.
