    In today's episode, we speak with Jenn Zen, an energy intuitive, hairstylist, and woman living the off-the-grid yurt lifestyle like our ancestors did many years ago. Jenn is a lover of nature and animals and spends her days living off the land and working on the land. She has found this way of living has greatly helped her mental wellbeing, helping her find clarity and peace. In addition, Jen also helps people on their spirituality journeys through things such as dance and meditation. This is why she chose to live in a yurt, so she could dive deeper into her own spirituality journey. We chatted about this unique way of living, how it has helped her and what a day in the yurt is like. Jen also shared her own spirituality journey with us and spoke about the importance of energy.
