Ingrid De La Mare-Kenny is a French American entrepreneur, author and wellness expert. I was introduced to Ingrid through our mutual friend and rockstar human Lauryn Bosstick. I immediately became enamored with Ingrid’s story and wanted to dive into it on the show.  

Ingrid’s life completely fell apart in her late twenties when she was arrested by the FBI and accused of internet fraud for selling jeans online. She was sentenced to 4 years in federal prison, which seemed quite harsh given the crime . She immediately appealed her case and fought tooth and nail for her freedom, her family and her life. Ingrid comes on the show today to share how clinging onto hope when her life felt impossible helped her win the appeal, overturn the sentence, be a mother to her kids and live to tell the story.
