Doctors said “we don’t know.” Jennifer Burns said, “that’s not good enough.”

On this episode of Don’t F*kn Shrink, host Daffney Allwein sits down with Jennifer to share her story of refusing to shrink when traditional medicine had no answers. She fought for herself, found the right care, and reclaimed her vibrant health.

Part of her discovery was that foods she thought were healthy, eggs, yogurt, and cashews, were fueling her pain and weight gain. By uncovering hidden triggers, shifting to an anti-inflammatory diet, and embracing yoga, Jennifer lost 20 pounds, eliminated hip pain, and regained her energy in her 50s.

✨ What you’ll hear:

  • Why refusing to shrink and self advocacy changes everything
  • The turning point when Jennifer decided “we don’t know” was not acceptable
  • The surprising food sensitivities that fueled her pain
  • How she transformed her health and confidence in midlife
  • A message of hope for every woman told to “just accept it”

Jennifer’s journey proves: you never have to shrink.
