Meet me

I’m Jennifer,

Founder of WonderCrone.

This is a space for women who are no longer interested in aging quietly… and very interested in aging in power.

If you’ve been feeling the nudge that something in you is not finished—not even close—you’re in the right place.

I meet people, places, and possibilities where they are—with wonder and a deep curiosity about what makes us human.

The creative expression of cultures around the world thrills me. Not just for its infinite variation, but for the quiet echoes that remind us we are more alike than we are different.

I speak out against injustice. And I stand beside those who do the same.

  • I am quiet energy.

  • A seed planter.

  • A nurturer who crafts stairs for others to climb.

Wisdom and wonder live deep in me. They bring both contentment and a restlessness—the sense that there is always more to grow into, more to become.

My through lines are power, purpose, and possibility.

And if you’re wondering…

No, I’m not done yet.

If you’re not either, you’re in the right place.

Why WonderCrone?

What’s up with that name?

Wonder means more than curiosity. It’s the audacity to not know—and still be powerful.

It’s not a fleeting feeling. It’s a way of moving through the world.

In a culture that worships certainty, control, and productivity, wonder is radical. Especially for women in our third chapter—who’ve been told it’s time to wind down, not ramp up.

To wonder is to soften into strength. To live the question. To treat mystery as something sacred.

This isn’t branding. It’s a way of being.

Let’s talk about Crone.

Yes, it’s a charged word. Sharp. Jarring. Misunderstood.
Which is exactly why we reclaim it.

“Crone” was never meant to mean “old hag.” She was the truth-teller. The edge-walker. The keeper of deep wisdom.

She’s wild—not worried about approval. Powerful—not palatable.
No longer here to please. Here to be.

To reclaim the Crone is to reclaim our fire.

So there’s the name.

WonderCrone.

Because wonder needs grounding. And wisdom needs a voice.

We don’t fear the fire. We are the fire.

Before WonderCrone, my work took me across countries, cultures, and complex systems—supporting efforts in democracy, justice, and human rights.

Along the way, I learned something that no strategy document ever quite captured:

  • People don’t transform because they’re told what to do.

  • They transform when something inside them shifts.

WonderCrone grew from that understanding—and from my own moment of asking:

Ageism? Is that what this is?

Since then, my work has taken many forms—writing, art, facilitation, conversation—but the through line remains the same:

Helping women reclaim their voice, their power, and their sense of what’s still possible.

If something here resonates—stay.

Start with a Power Pause.
Explore the writing.
Follow what pulls your attention.

There’s no one right way in.

Just your way.
