364. The Power of Being Shameless, Selfish, and Nosy with Jenny Wood

364. The Power of Being Shameless, Selfish, and Nosy with Jenny Wood20 mei 20251 u 02 min

What if the only thing standing between you and the life you truly want is the courage to begin?

In this episode, I speak with Jenny Wood—former Google executive and author of Wild Courage—about what it means to pursue the essential with boldness. Jenny shares how she walked away from a high-powered role to write the book she felt called to create. We explore the power of being shameless, curious, and even a little reckless when the moment demands it.

You’ll hear how she faced down fear, navigated imposter syndrome, and embraced the uncomfortable path toward growth. This is a conversation about clarity, action, and living with wild courage—the kind that leads you not just to success, but to meaning.
