Influencer, fashionista, domestic queen, former professional event planner, and everything in between - Jupiter’s influencer and creator, Jenna Hubka aka The Random Housewife joins Holly Meyer Lucas on the In The Hype Seat podcast.
Lifestyle creator, influencer, and blogger Jenna Hubka, known to thousands as The Random Housewife, recently sat down with Holly Meyer Lucas inside the PodPlus podcast studio in Jupiter, Florida for a new episode of In The Hype Seat. Their conversation was high energy, transparent, authentic, and full of the twists and turns that have shaped Jenna’s rise into one of the brightest and most trusted voices in the influencer community. What unfolded was not a story of overnight success, but a portrait of consistency, discipline, instinct, and real world skill that has carried her from the chaos of Daytona spring breaks to the center of a modern digital brand.
The evening that sparked her entire platform was unplanned. At a girls dinner in 2020, she corrected an etiquette detail, shared a handwritten recipe, and mentioned she had once been Miss Cotillion in 1996. Someone asked how she knew so much. “I just know a bunch of random ass shit,” she said. The name practically named itself. Real estate leader Erica Wolfe leaned across the table and insisted she buy the domain. “She made me buy randomhousewife.com at the table,” Jenna recalled. She left the dinner confident she would never use it.
She was wrong.
From Ormond Beach to the University of Florida and a Career Built on Precision
Hubka grew up in Ormond Beach, just north of Daytona, in a household with strict parents and an adolescence shaped by the unpredictability of spring break culture. “I have seen more naked people in a drive home from school than probably most people have seen in their entire lives,” she told Holly. She felt older than her age, a trait she carried to the University of Florida where she earned a degree in parks and recreation before event planning existed as a major.
Her early career in event production trained her mind for systems, contingency plans, and flawless execution. When a florist failed to show up once, she learned how to build arrangements from grocery store flowers. She slept three hours a night. She built spreadsheets that included a line item for duct tape. She learned burnout, and she learned that her personality could not turn the job off.
Still, she missed the creativity. The flowers, the details, the rhythm of pulling something beautiful out of chaos. When she became a mother, she realized she needed a different format, one that honored her family without extinguishing her skills.
The First Posts, the First Plan, and the First Signs of a Community
Jenna posted a family photo. Then a recipe. Then a cleaning tip. Her childhood friends encouraged her. “If I could help one person, okay, great,” she said.
Then, during the pandemic, Cole made a suggestion that shifted everything. “He said, if you are going to do this, actually do this,” she told Holly. She opened Excel, drafted her first blueprint, and began learning the mechanics of growth. She admits her early assumptions were all wrong. She learned as she went, adjusting, refining, improving.
Her account grew anyway. She hit ten thousand followers quickly. Brands reached out. She learned the business side of influence. “Every day I wake up and I can just share these amazing pants with pearls and rhinestones,” she said. “It is unbelievable.”
Holly acknowledged the work required. “Do you know how hard it is to build what you have built,” she said. Jenna agreed. “So hard.”
A Business Guided by Integrity, Not Algorithms
Hubka approaches influencing with the discipline of someone who has run a company before. She tests products for weeks before giving an honest review. She edits every video herself to preserve her voice. She declines agency representation because she does not want to surrender control or authenticity. “As an influencer, all I have is my word,” she told Holly. “If you do not have your word, and people cannot trust you, you are not going to have a business.”
Her inbox fills daily. She turns away most skincare deals because the timelines do not allow for real results. She passes on partnerships when a brand’s script does not match her tone. She says no even when no feels risky. “That is the risk you take every day by saying no,” she said.
She works with an assistant to manage contracts and logistics, but she keeps the creative at the center of her own hands. “It is my name that is on the line.”
The Messages That Matter More Than Metrics
For all the content she produces, the moment that stays with her is a quiet one. She posted her morning prayer over coffee, something she reads daily. A woman she did not know wrote to her. “She said she needed to hear those exact words this morning.”
“That is why I am doing this,” Jenna told Holly. “For you to do something that impacts someone so positively, wow.”
Her audience confides in her. They share gratitude for recipes that transformed dinner routines. They share encouragement. They share trust. It is the part of influencing that no spreadsheet can quantify.
A Steady Climb Toward One Hundred Thousand
Jenna’s goal for the year is to hit one hundred thousand followers. “I feel like I am walking in stilettos, crawling my way up a ten story building,” she said.
Growth is unpredictable. Sometimes it is a pink two piece set. Sometimes it is a safety warning about Instagram’s location update. Sometimes it is a ten second clip she filmed once, without editing.
She prepares for holiday content, travel posts, floral arrangements, hosting tips, and the creative season she loves. She invests in her own platforms to protect her work from the volatility of social networks. “Tomorrow, everything can turn black,” she said of the digital landscape.
Through it all, she stays grounded in the values that launched her platform. Authenticity. Clarity. Discipline. And a commitment to helping people feel seen in the small moments.
“I hope my page encourages people to be the best version of themselves,” she said. “Because that is all I am trying to do.”
