"What we instill in our children will be the foundation upon which they build their future." — Steve Maraboli

Today’s guest, Jen Cohen, has built her entire life around bold action — and she’s here to help you do the same.

Jen is a bestselling author, top-ranked podcast host, and speaker who’s become a force in the worlds of wellness, business, and high performance.

Her viral TEDx talk, The Secret to Getting Anything You Want in Life, has inspired 5M+ viewers.

From selling companies for millions to working with brands like Nike and P&G, to sitting down with icons like Tony Robbins, Mark Cuban, and Matthew McConaughey, Jen has made boldness her superpower — and shows others how to unlock theirs.

And yes… she once got a date with Keanu Reeves. You’ll hear the full story in this episode 😉
