Jen Hatmaker Biography

Jen Hatmaker is a New York Times bestselling author of "For the Love," "Fierce, Free, and Full of Fire," and 12 other books. Her memoir, "Awake: A Memoir," provides a personal account of upheaval, reinvention, and the freedom found in starting over after discovering her husband's infidelity and their subsequent divorce. She is in a relationship with author Tyler Merritt, with whom she tours and they tell their story of starting over together.

Hatmaker still identifies as a Christian and maintains a personal relationship with Jesus, but she has stepped away from the institutional, organized church and evangelical structures. In her 2025 memoir "Awake," Hatmaker described her faith as having evolved away from the conservative Christianity she was raised in.

Hatmaker hosts the award-winning "For the Love" podcast, where she and her co-host engage with guests on topics such as personal growth, cultural issues, and community building, reaching a broad audience each week. She also curates the Jen Hatmaker Book Club, fostering a community of readers through monthly selections and exclusive events.

Hatmaker is a co-founder of Legacy Collective, a giving organization that grants millions of dollars toward sustainable projects globally. She is known for candid storytelling, advocacy, and leadership in online communities, connecting with millions. Hatmaker has spoken publicly about navigating significant personal challenges, including the end of her 26-year marriage, and is recognized for her authenticity and resilience in addressing adversity.
