Description

Season one comes to a close with a powerhouse finale featuring Jen Cohen, a dynamo in the wellness industry who has taken her experiences in fitness and entrepreneurship to new heights. Listen in as we explore Jen's philosophy on cultivating confidence and how her approach to fostering self-esteem from a young age can lay the groundwork for a formidable future. Her personal transformation—from perceiving her uniqueness as a disadvantage to embracing it as her most significant asset—inspires us to recognize the same potential within ourselves and the next generation.

"In the pursuit of authenticity, we often stumble upon our unique abilities. These unique abilities are not weaknesses but our greatest strengths. Embracing these strengths, these unique aspects of our personalities, often feels like a giant leap of faith, a leap towards boldness." - Jen Cohen 

This episode isn't just about personal development; it's a candid look at the societal pressures that shape our courage and self-worth. We tackle the challenges posed by 'tall poppy syndrome', the struggle for authenticity in the face of 'woke culture', and the complex dance between individuality and the desire to belong. As we navigate the digital landscape, we dissect the impact of social media on connection and loneliness, underscoring the need for real-world relationships and confidence built through competence, rather than the fleeting validation of online personas.

"Instilling confidence, instilling self-esteem in children, it starts when you're young, and I think a lot of times we are remiss in building it for young people." - Jen Cohen
