Jennifer Foxworthy is a post-domestic violence thriver and a victim’s advocate. As a sought-after motivational speaker, Jennifer travels around the country using her life experiences to boldly, authentically, and transparently engage audiences on topics like intimate partner abuse, self-empowerment, overcoming adversity, self-care, and workplace safety. Jennifer’s first-hand experience with overcoming adversity drives her dynamic presentations. A retired Navy Aircrewman, Jennifer knocked down stereotypes and dealt with discrimination as she became the first African-American female Aircrewman, the first African-American Aircrewman in the enlisted ranks, and the first female In-Flight Technician during her squadron tours. While serving in the Navy, Jennifer experienced more than five years of service-member-on-service-member domestic violence. She suffered in silence in a male-dominated industry, afraid to confide in anyone. During her time in the Navy, Jennifer found herself facing a war on three fronts. She was facing a personal war with an abusive partner who professed to love her, enduring workplace bullying and career sabotage because of her skin color and gender, all while flying combat missions in three wars (Kosovo, Afghanistan, and Iraq). Jennifer is grateful to be alive to share her story of overcoming so many dynamic circumstances. She has made it her mission to bring awareness to domestic violence so that survivors can heal without a life of guilt and shame. Jennifer explains, “I use my voice to help others find theirs.”

Quote: “I am a multidimensional passionate speaker using my life experiences to inspire, motivate, and encourage you! I look forward to guest speaking at your churches, youth organizations, shelters, banquets, corporate events, and schools.”

As a change champion and someone dedicated to making a greater impact in the world, Jennifer became the Founder and CEO of Unstoppable You Ministries, Inc. in 2017. Unstoppable You Ministries, Inc. is a faith-based nonprofit 501(c) (3) social enterprise that educates, empowers, and inspires men and women to have whole and healthy lives, by providing emergency services, education, and awareness, as well as supportive resources to community members around the country, especially those affected by domestic violence, human trafficking, and homelessness. Jennifer and her dynamic team recognize that many people still don’t understand domestic violence, human trafficking, or homelessness. People need to realize that one person can experience all three. Jennifer desires to collaborate with other organizations to fill those gaps across UYM’s multiple platforms.

Additionally, Jennifer believes that having the credentials is important to do the work. It was instilled in her training “to not harm.” Jennifer earned her Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) through the Board of Social Work Examiners of the State of Maryland. Jennifer is also a graduate of the ROPER Victim Assistance Academy of Maryland and has become a Victim Assistance Specialist (VASII). Additionally, Jennifer is a member of the Maryland Network Against Domestic Violence, the National Organization for Victim Assistance (NOVA), and a speaker for the Pennsylvania Office of Victim Advocate’s Resilient Voices Program. In addition, Unstoppable You Ministries is a member of the York YWCA York SA/DV/HT Task Force, Maryland Human Trafficking Task Force Victim Committee, New Jersey Coalition Against Human Trafficking, St. Mary’s County Violence, Injury, and Trauma Action Team, as well as the Human Trafficking Collaborative of Southern Maryland.
