What does real allyship, leadership, and courage look like today?

It’s not a repost, a slogan, or a perfectly curated statement. It’s choosing to show up even when it’s uncomfortable, unpopular, or wildly misunderstood. Known to many from TLC’s I Am Jazz, Sander Jennings shares what it was really like growing up in a family that stood publicly for trans rights long before society was ready to listen. He opens up about the mindset shifts that took him from quiet supporter to confident advocate, the pressure men face inside the toxic “manosphere,” and why empathy and emotional intelligence are now non negotiable for anyone who wants to influence with integrity. From navigating frat culture to finding his voice online to reshaping his digital marketing career around elevating nonprofits, Sander’s story is a masterclass in showing up bigger than your fear. If you're committed to leading with your values, using your voice for good, and staying grounded in a polarized world, this episode will challenge you, empower you, and remind you exactly why your voice matters.
