Jennifer Kane is an author, educator, and public speaker who balances chronic pain and a more than twenty year career as a marketing and communications strategist. For the past five years, she has been researching pain and fielding questions from people in online communities who suffer from it. Their struggles (and the suicides of some) inspired her to write her latest book, "Chronic Pain Recovery," and take a more active role in advocating for people in pain both locally and nationally. Jen and her husband live in Minneapolis with one extroverted tweenager and two lazy basset hounds.
