In this episode of Going Public with Ross Mandell, Ross sits down with Jenny from The Marina Effect for a raw, inspiring conversation about self-improvement, discipline, confidence, identity, and building a new life through daily habits.
Jenny shares her personal story—from growing up as a shy, insecure artist and battling body dysmorphia, emotional eating, and an eating disorder, to transforming her mindset and body through running, yoga, gym discipline, and community. She explains how leaving Miami for a difficult chapter in Georgia became her turning point, forcing her to rebuild her life from the ground up—physically, mentally, and spiritually.
Ross Mandell connects Jenny’s journey to the principles of success he lives by: showing up when you don’t feel like it, building your “vessel” to receive blessings, and committing to the grind even on off days. Together, they discuss why most people stay stuck in cycles—and how consistent action, accountability, and environment can change everything.
This episode also dives into the rise of The Marina Effect as a movement—not just a band—built on community, health, performance, and shared purpose. Jenny explains what it’s like being surrounded by a driven team, creating content daily, building a business from scratch, and learning to thrive in the present moment.
If you’re into self-improvement podcasts, personal transformation stories, mindset coaching, fitness discipline, and building confidence, this episode delivers real-life perspective and motivation you can apply immediately.
