Up Close with Jen Hibben

In this episode of Up Close, we sit down with Jen Hibben—a community builder, spiritual leader, and self-professed 90s music enthusiast. Jen opens up about what it means to live a life that’s busy, how she navigates a jam-packed schedule with intention, and why Ames holds such a special place in her heart.

From the rhythms of her daily life, Jen shares stories that are both grounded and galvanizing. We talk about the beauty of collaboration in small towns, the power of showing up for one another, and being a welcoming community.
