Her recovery journey was aided by a nurse who encouraged her to "get angry" to regain her speech. Demonstrating remarkable resilience, Jennie returned to work part-time in July 2023 and resumed her full-time duties as a presenter and correspondent in 2024. During her recovery, Jennie authored a book titled "How to Read F1," which was released in November 2024. The writing process played a therapeutic role in her rehabilitation, helping her overcome lingering dyslexia resulting from the stroke.
