About

Jenny Olson hopes her words make people feel and think. And that her voice becomes the voice of women who have walked these paths she has walked. From human trafficking to freedom, addiction to recovery, from abuse to redemption. She is a survivor of complex trauma; a widow making her way in a brave new world. She fought her way out of the streets of NYC to corporate America and went to college - a promise she made to herself once in jail - to getting a B.S., MBA, Master in Software Systems, and DBA.
Find her poems in LEO Literary Journal, miniMAG, 100Subtexts, Saturday Sirens Blog as a guest poet, Hamonic Verse Anthology. from Local Gems Press, The Antiquery Magazine, The Keeping - Jenny Olson chapbook 2024 Local Gems Press, and her Instagram @jackieowendouglas, later in 2024 her website JennyOlsonPoet.com.

As an emerging poet, she writes about hard things that people have done to them. Or do to themselves. Those things people don’t talk about, much less write about. Edgy and line crossing, no holds barred writing. But to those women still stuck and imprisoned in these worlds, they need a voice and she intends to be that voice. To know that hope can rise from the darkness.
