Often, courage is perceived as taking massive leaps—quitting a job, launching a venture, or making bold leadership moves. But Jenny challenges this notion, emphasizing that courage isn’t always loud. It can be quiet, deliberate, and found in the everyday choices we make. Whether it's setting boundaries, embracing vulnerability, or letting go of the need to please others, courage manifests in ways that aren’t always recognized but are equally transformative.


Throughout the conversation, Jenny shares personal stories that reflect the challenges and triumphs of stepping into bravery. She discusses the fear that often holds people back, the role of vulnerability in leadership, and the traits women can reclaim to empower themselves in their careers. The discussion highlights the complexities of leadership, particularly for women, and the importance of building intentional relationships that foster growth and success.
