Jennifer Cohen is an entrepreneur, best-selling author, brand strategist, international speaker, podcaster, and educator with a specific focus on building healthy habits to drive positive behavioral change. Her new book, Bigger Better Bolder: Live the Life You Want, Not the Life You Get is out now.

What you'll learn from this episode:

  • How to become bolder by practicing asking for what you want, and why you should practice this skill frequently and start small until you gain confidence. 

  • Why you don’t need to be the smartest person in the room to be the most successful. In fact, average people tend to be more successful because they are more comfortable with the feeling of struggle. 

  • The importance of cultivating self-awareness around your tone, and why you should always ask for discounts and negotiate prices.

  • How a fitness practice can help you learn how to set goals, improve incrementally, and learn patience and persistence while reaping all the cognitive benefits associated with being active. 

  • What "the Batman effect" is and how using this self-distancing technique helps you push through uncomfortable moments and go after what you want. 

  • And much more!
