In this episode of What’s Possible, Ilene Schaffer sits down with HR executive Jen Feri for an honest and deeply reflective conversation about work, grief, alignment, and what it means to honor yourself.

Jen shares the story of being in a role that looked like a dream job on paper, while privately realizing that the culture and environment were no longer a fit. When her father entered hospice, the stillness of those final days became a catalyst for clarity. Jen began asking what it would really mean to honor him by honoring herself.

Together, Ilene and Jen explore why so many high-achieving professionals stay too long in roles that leave them exhausted, misaligned, or disconnected from their values. They talk about non-negotiables, belonging, overwork, recovery, and how creating space to pause can help us hear what our mind, body, and spirit may already be trying to tell us.

This episode is especially relevant for leaders, HR professionals, and anyone wondering whether the work they are doing still fits the life they want to live.
