Obsessed with Fear ft. Jenn Leconte (The Brené Brown Inspired Series)

What is fear?

Brené Brown, author of Atlas of the Heart (a book we are obsessed with), defines fear as:

A negative, short-lasting, high-alert emotion in response to a perceived threat, and, like anxiety, it can be measured as a state or trait.

Our fear response evolves over time to help us protect ourselves from dangerous situations. It can be disruptive and destructive, leading to anxiety, stress, and even panic attacks. But when used effectively, fear can push us to achieve great things, heightening our senses and preparing us to take quick and appropriate action to defend ourselves or others.

Jenn Leconte joins us on this episode to share how she has taken fear to a whole different level and used it for good. Instead of paralyzing her, fear enabled her to recover and reach exponential success.

She tells her story about coming to America from Jamaica at the age of 16 for college and learning how to cook to make ends meet. Left with almost nothing after a failed first marriage, Jenn chose to persevere and overcome the obstacles in starting a restaurant without any prior experience. This dedication and effort, moving herself away from her initial fears to a new comfort level, led her to become an award-winning chef based in Eatonville, Florida.

Jenn is the Founder and CEO of DaJen Eats, specializing in vegan recipes with a Jamaican flair. Her passion is to help people learn new techniques and discover exciting flavors on their food journey.

Obsessed with Vulnerability ft. Rev. Leslie Peters, RN (The Brené Brown Inspired Series)

What is vulnerability?

Brené Brown, author of Atlas of the Heart (a book we are obsessed with), defines and describes vulnerability as:

The emotion that we experience during times of uncertainty, risk, and emotional exposure.

In our culture, we tend to equate vulnerability with weakness. We see it as a character flaw, something to be ashamed of and hidden away. But, vulnerability is, in fact, a sign of courage. It takes great courage to reveal our authentic selves to others, open ourselves up and be vulnerable. We tap into a wellspring of love and connection that allows us to form meaningful relationships when we do so.

In this episode, Rev. Leslie Peters is here to share how she was able to see her authentic self through vulnerability. The abuse and neglect she experienced throughout her life left her feeling disconnected. This led her to a lifelong practice to give others what she needed.

Uncovering the true meaning of love through her practice, Rev. Leslie felt the need to release her ‘armor,’ allowing herself to step into her courage, live with an open heart, and find power in vulnerability. For Rev. Leslie, being vulnerable is also the ability to stand and own your truth regardless of the consequences.

Rev. Leslie, the Heart Nurturer, has been helping people for 32 years. She is a registered nurse, an ordained minister, a trauma and resilience expert, and a transformational conversationalist. She is on a mission to create a safe space for trauma survivors to unapologetically see, accept, and reconnect with their true selves.
