But not in the curling world.

Jennifer has partnered with two other women a unique financial advisory service for women.

Here's the link from today's Winnipeg Free Press.

A first step to creating a business that might give her more work-life balance.

I hear she works pretty hard for her employer...

Can't help but think she will be the "hook" for this trio with regards to using her name to get client interest, as opposed to an equal partner on the front line operation side of things. At least initially. Either way, the idea is brilliant and I wish all three the best of luck!

After I read the article I also thought what a brilliant idea. JJ will be the draw (sorry bout the pun) in this arrangement and she knows it. But the other two gals seem motivated and will provide the intellectual muscle to get this thing going.

Jennifer won't be quitting her job with Wellington West anytime soon, but she's only 36, an accomplished lawyer and one of the most recognizable athletes (female for sure) in Canada.

Other well recognized athletes would be:

Perdita Felicien, Hayler Wickenheiser, Cassidy Campbell, Cheryl Bernard, Lorie Kane, Coco Jones, Kelley Law, Trish Stratus, Maryse Ouellette, Shannon Kleibrink, can't think of too many others.

OK, its coming to me. Jamie Sale, several other female figure skaters, Cindy Klassen, the red-headed figure skater from Winnipeg who just retired after her last Olympics in BC.

Throw in Christine Sinclair, Jen Heil, Sidney Crosby (sorry, couldn't resist that one), Tessa Virtue, and Ashley McIvor (who's been in some recent commercials iirc).

Edit: Didn't realize this topic was 2 weeks old already...where is everyone?
