Jessie Kanzer, author of 'Don’t Just Sit There, DO NOTHING' and the newly released 'Unlocking Your Inner Zelensky', was born in the Soviet Union as Asya Bronfman, a descendant of Holocaust survivors. As an 8-year-old refugee in the USA who only spoke Russian, Jessie (or “Asya” then) yearned to fit in, changing her name and much about herself. Experiencing depression and an eating disorder, Jessie pursued Hollywood fame, men, and the American Dream but always fell short. We discuss her refugee experience and her latest book on Volodymyr Zelensky. Kanzer’s writing has appeared in The New York Times, USA Today, and the Washington Post.
