Jenn Dafoe-Turner Motivational Speaker from Cambridge, ON

Jenn Dafoe-Turner – Speaking Hope Where It Hurts Most Jenn Dafoe-Turner doesn’t just speak—she ministers. With authenticity, humor, and a deep reliance on the Word of God, Jenn meets audiences where they are and gently leads them to where Jesus wants them to be: whole, healed, and hopeful. Jenn is a living testimony that no life is beyond the reach of God’s grace. A survivor of the Canadian foster care system, a recovered alcoholic and drug addict, and someone who has been set free from same-sex attraction, Jenn speaks from the ashes of her past with boldness, compassion, and Holy Spirit fire. Married just one week after her sixteenth birthday to the man who still stands by her nearly 35 years later, Jenn knows what it means to weather storms, wrestle with identity, and walk the long road of healing. Her lived experience gives her messages authenticity and authority—because she’s not just preaching transformation, she’s lived it. Through her powerful storytelling, biblical insight, and deep empathy, Jenn brings hope to the hurting and challenges the complacent. She is a speaker, pastor, coach, and spiritual midwife—helping others birth the God-calling in their lives. Whether she’s ministering on stage or in a quiet conversation, Jenn’s presence makes space for Jesus to minister. Jenn’s messages stir the heart and spark transformation. Her signature talk, “How Do You Need Jesus to Show Up?”, invites listeners to reflect on how Christ meets them in their greatest need—whether it’s through Truth that sets them free, Tears that heal, or Transformation that redeems. This powerful message is Jenn’s transformation experience from addiction and resonates with anyone longing for a deeper, more personal encounter with Jesus. Her second talk, “Looking for a Trade?”, is a message born out of extreme church hurt. She invites her audience into a soul-refreshing invitation to lay down emotional burdens and receive divine exchange: • Guilt for Goodness – Let go of shame and step into the righteousness of Christ. • Grudges for Grace – Release unforgiveness and receive God’s undeserved mercy. • Grievance for Gladness – Surrender bitterness and sorrow for the joy and peace found only in Him. Whether she’s on stage, behind a pulpit, or sitting across from someone in need, Jenn’s message is clear: Jesus still shows up—and when He does, everything changes. Ready to bring Jenn to your event?
