Huddled under a layer of trash, he was freezing, dope-sick and hadn’t eaten for days."

To Jen, being your inner rockstar is about shining a spotlight on the moments of your life that we don't openly talk about. It's not about hiding parts of ourselves, but embracing them, or as she says, "Giving them a hug and inviting them in for a cup of tea."

She Means Fitness BusinessNicole DeBoom and Skirt SportsNicole DeBoom wanted pretty and running to be synonymous. And so she made it so. She wanted women of all sizes to feel sexy and strong as they were active. Hers was the first running skirt. Her inspirational message to women that a strong body means a strong mind is the foundation of the business. She’s still as excited about the company as she was in 2004.
