Episode # 128: Living a Life of Trust with Jennifer Greenhut Tollin Founder of Zero Negative

Listen HERE

Jenn Greenhut Tollin, actress turned singer-songwriter turned yoga teacher in Los Angeles, having 20 years plus teaching in yoga studios and private clients in Los Angeles.  After meeting her husband, Larry, she was on a path to have the family she always wanted. A year and a half after marriage, her dreams were shattered by a stage IV triple-negative breast cancer diagnosis. Immediately, instead of wanting children, all she wanted was to stay alive.
