Hi there, your RSS feed link should be the following.
https://jennahoward.com/feed
or
https://jennahoward.com/feed/
Some services seem to work only without the trailing forward slash and some only with it.

I just tested on an RSS feed validator, and it should be with the trailing forward slash.

Actually now I’m not getting the feed to validate. Did you perhaps install a plugin to disable xml-rpc?
Also at Settings > Reading under Syndication feeds show the most recent, what is that set at?
I’ve tried https://jennahoward.com/feed or https://jennahoward.com/feed/ in the past and they don’t work. All it does is send me to my homepage not my blog posts.
I don’t now what xml-rpc is but I tried disabling all my plugins and that didn’t work either.
Syndication feeds show the most recent is set at 5 items.

I’m not sure what is blocking your feed. When I visit other sites, my feed icon in my toobar is active, but when I visit yours, it is disabled.
I would suggest disabling all plugins and then check the feed. If it works, re-enable your plugins one-at-a-time and check the feed to find out which one is causing the issue.

Also, I would suggest you ask your web host if they are by chance blocking RSS somehow.
Thanks, I’ll contact my web host.
As a heads up my web host said the RSS isn’t enabled by default on this theme. I followed the directions they sent (https://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/WordPress_Feeds) and when I add the code to my sidebar it lands halfway between the blog posts and the side menu bar. So needless to say I’m getting super frustrated with this theme.
