[[File:Jenny.jpg|thumb|300px|Jenny]]

== Personality ==
* '''Insecure''': about her appearance; lacks self confidence; lacks financial recognition; lacks constancy
* '''Impulsive''': goes with the flow
* '''Clumsy''': she's not aware of her strength and body size
* '''Contradictory''': wants to be accepted for who she presents herself; needs to accept herself for who she is
* '''Vegetarian''': has been for 10 years, but thinks she needs some animal products protein for her anaemia
* '''Temperamental''': has ups and downs hormonally; feels apprehension towards group therapy
* '''Rebellious''': she questions everything she has learnt to be true; believes strongly that everything we learn is a construction for economical interests

== Struggles ==
* sometimes depressed
* cyclothymic
* reluctant to engage intimately
* not care for "family values"
* easily frustrated
* egocentric

== Source of pain ==
* wants people to accept her, but fails to define her true self
* feels very strongly that gender is a construction, although she perceives herself as a woman
* she's afraid of discrimination, and being ridiculed
* overthinks

== Needs ==
* ACCEPTANCE: of self, of circumstances, of reality
* FAITH: in oneself, in others, in the world, in God
* TRUST: in oneself, in others, in the unknown
* SELFLESSNESS: including sacrifice, altruism, heroism, and overcoming greed
* RESPONSIBILITY: including duty, standing up for a cause, accepting one’s destiny
* REDEMPTION: including atonement, accepting blame, remorse, and salvation

== Wants ==
Wants to be loved and appreciated.

* wants to find someone to love her exactly for who she is
* wants to nurture, take care and teach kids about love and empathy, and self-worth
* wants recognition for her vocation
* wants to make fun, safe and playful ways to bond with kids and help them build up their self esteem

In pursuit of her goal (become a real child), she's been actively:
* she has been attending meditation classes to work on her impulsiveness
* she managed to get a group of 25 children on her cooking class
* she's also giving a sculpture workshop for young kids, to work on their perception of their own bodies

Roadblocks to achieving their goal:
* she's got the interest of a suitable man, but he doesn't know about her past
* she's a feminist, who questions the role of women, but feels strongly about motherhood
* her family rejected her, so she carries a lot of emotional weight

== Desires ==
Being a mother.

== Background ==
* born Henry Jones
* cooking teacher, sculpture teacher
* 38 years old (born the 9th of October 1991)
* she identified as a girl but her brothers and father were in denial
* in the summer of 2004 Henry caught Jenny wearing her mother's clothes, beat her up and threw her out of the house; her 3 older brothers couldn't even look at her dressed like that, so she went away without ever looking back
* she spent a couple of nights wandering the streets when she was found by her new ''mother'' (Cassandra) who fed and clothed her, and took her in; Jenny introduced herself to Cassandra with that name instead of Henry
* legally changed her name to Jenny Jones when she turned 18
* she was not able to finish high school, but started learning art instead, with her ''mother's'' friends and teachers; she eventually got an apartment in Darlinghurst that she could pay for while selling take-away dinners.
* in 2027 Cassandra passed away in a public hospital for a lung infection; Jenny believes she was neglected by the hospital staff, who discriminated her for being poor and transgender; after that event, Jenny decided to go off the grid: there was no one left for her in the city

== Family ==
* from Australian (English) descent
* three older brothers
* her mother, Mia Wilson, was a homemaker who married young (19) and had 4 children before turning 30; she always wanted a daughter, and died while pregnant with Jenny (she was born premature at 5 months)
* her father, Henry Jones, a famous surgeon, never really recovered from Mia's death; Jenny would always ask her father about her, but he could not talk much about her without breaking down
