In this episode of Teeter Talks, I sit down with Jessica Janzen, motivational speaker, coach, author, entrepreneur, and philanthropist, whose story of resilience and joy will leave you inspired. From building a foundation in honour of her late son to empowering others with her contagious energy, Jessica shares how she fights for joy, leans into authenticity, and leads with courage in every season of life.

Join us as we dive into these highlights:
• Why joy isn’t effortless, it’s intentional “hard work” that requires daily practice.
• The leadership lesson of “living well to lead well” and modeling healthy boundaries for those you serve.
• How to release the weight of others’ opinions and lead authentically, even when it feels uncomfortable.
• The difference between happiness and joy, and how joy can coexist with grief, struggle, and uncertainty.
• Why true community doesn’t come by proximity, but by intentionally seeking spaces that fill you up.
• Reframing “problems” as opportunities for growth and why great leaders make peace with problem-solving.

Tune in to this episode of Teeter Talks for an unforgettable conversation that will challenge how you define leadership, joy, and success.
