Jenn Harris’s journey is a lesson in reinvention, resilience, and trusting yourself through change. Before becoming President and CEO of AirX Utility Surveyors, she built her career on curiosity and connection. She studied psychology, dreamed of becoming a golf pro, and went on to build golf-centered businesses that helped women gain confidence, build relationships, and find their voice in male-dominated spaces. When the pandemic halted her event-based ventures, Jenn pivoted into a completely new field and stepped into her most challenging role yet—turning around an established company in the utilities industry.

In this episode of Badass Women in Business, Jenn shares the truth about stepping into leadership after a founder exits, the challenges of transforming a team and culture, and how she’s balancing the demands of running a company while preparing for motherhood. Her story is about taking bold chances, trusting your instincts, and leading with both compassion and conviction.

Show Notes:

Jenn Harris has never followed a straight path. From studying psychology to pursuing golf, founding women-focused businesses, and now leading a California-based utility company, her story is rooted in curiosity and resilience. In this episode, she talks with Aggie and Cristy about:
 • Turning failure into resilience and self-awareness
 • Founding High Heel Golfer and Street Swings to help women build confidence
 • Pivoting during the pandemic and stepping into a new industry
 • Taking over an established business and redefining company culture
 • Building a personal board of mentors and advisors
 • The realities of pregnancy and leadership
 • Why sustainability matters more than endless growth

Jenn’s insights remind every listener that reinvention is not about starting over but about showing up differently, with more courage, clarity, and compassion each time.
