Jen Lumanlan


Jen Lumanlan is a parent who loves backpacking. Rather than put her passion on hold after having her daughter, Jen decided to take her daughter along for the ride: together they have hiked the Tour du Mont Blanc, most of the Dingle Way, half of the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, Cinque Terre, and from Breckenridge to Aspen in Colorado. Jen lives with her daughter (and her husband, who doesn’t hike) in Berkeley, CA. She holds a Master’s in Psychology focused on Child Development and is working on another in Education, and hosts a podcast to help the parents of toddlers and preschoolers make decisions about raising their children based on scientific research and the principles of respectful parenting.
