Jenni’s Uncensored Pennies
Hosted by Jennifer Marie Martinez, a Latina and 3rd-generation Texan now living in California, and her partner Cameron Bales, an Ohio native whose path also led him west, Jenni’s Uncensored Pennies is a space for raw, unfiltered conversations about life, love, and healing.
Together, they unpack their unique perspectives — from working in social services to navigating family dynamics, parenting, and the lingering impact of childhood trauma. Their conversations are unscripted and heartfelt, filled with laughter, honesty, and the kind of truth-telling that makes you nod along and say, “same.”
At times, Jennifer invites members of her “tribe” to join the discussion, adding new layers of insight and lived experience to each episode. Every bi-weekly conversation is an invitation to reflect, to feel seen, and to remember that healing isn’t linear — it’s beautifully human.
Pull up a seat, take a breath, and tune in to the stories that remind us we’re all just doing our best to turn our pain into purpose — one uncensored penny at a time.
