Jen Garrett — Get Inside the Huddle | Author, Military Officer & Branding Strategist
Jen Garrett is a multi-degree (seven!), Fortune 50 alum turned entrepreneur, National Guard officer, author of Move the Ball and the new book Dominate the Game. She helps professionals and business owners clarify their brand, show up with purpose, and “move the ball” every single day. Her story matters because she walked away from corporate comfort to build a mission that helps others suit up, show up, and win.
Key Takeaways from the Episode:
From Corporate to Calling: A life-changing phone call in November 2016 (the sudden passing of her father) sparked Jen’s shift from climbing the corporate ladder to pursuing meaningful legacy work.
The Leap (with Intention): She officially left Corporate America on November 5, 2019—her father’s birthday—after months of preparation as a single parent of five.
Pivot Like a Pro: When the 2020 pandemic hit, Jen shifted from general consulting to helping individuals and businesses position their brands to attract the right opportunities.
Suit Up. Show Up. Move the Ball.: Her new book, Dominate the Game, breaks success into three parts—suit up (clarity, habits, mindset), show up (priorities, anti-procrastination), and move the ball (consistent progress).
Energy & Ownership: Your energy is contagious. Control what you can control, take timeouts to reset, and align daily actions with your real assignment.
