The Work of You
This is a podcast about the leadership that matters most — the kind that starts from within.
Hosted by certified behavioral coach and Enneagram expert Jen Ostrich, The Work of You is for high-achieving humans ready to stop repeating patterns and start leading themselves differently.
Through insights from coaching, the Enneagram, and her own personal inner overhaul, Jen brings honesty, humor, and sharp emotional clarity to the table. With real talk, self-awareness tools, and a healthy dose of tough love, she helps you uncover what’s driving you, shift what’s no longer serving you, and ultimately do the work of you — one honest episode at a time.
This isn’t about fixing yourself. It’s about finally understanding yourself — so your choices, relationships, and leadership can actually align with who you truly are.
The Work of You
Season 1 Wrap Up - Let's Celebrate Some Wins!
What has this podcast brought me AND you in 2025?
In this milestone episode, I pause to reflect on what this podcast became in 2025. What started as a curiosity-led experiment grew into a consistent practice of inquiry, meaning-making, and conversation around how we understand ourselves. I share how the podcast AND I have grown and of course, ask you to reflect on the same. I look ahead to what’s coming next. As we move into 2026, this podcast will begin to widen the circle with guest conversations, while staying rooted in the same core questions that have shaped the show from the beginning. This episode is an invitation to pause, integrate, and step forward with intention — together.
