When Your Wounds Become Your Wisdom

When Wounds Become Wisdom

In this episode, I sit down with Jay Rosenzweig, global leadership strategist, impact investor, human rights advocate, and songwriter, for a conversation that travels from grief to joy, ego to impact, and business to spirituality.

We explore how to turn wounds into wisdom, why grief can open a doorway to growth, and how to invest and lead from a place of purpose. Jay challenges the way we see success, legacy, and even identity and offers a fresh, soul-stirring perspective on living a meaningful life.

This isn’t just another leadership chat. It’s an exploration of how to live, love, and lead with depth.

🔑 In This Episode We Dive Into ✨ Why joy > success (and how to actually choose it) ✨ How to surf life’s waves without being swallowed ✨ Turning grief and wounds into wisdom that helps others heal ✨ The trap of legacy vs the power of true impact ✨ Why pleasure is fleeting (but still fun 😉 ) and how to ground into joy ✨ Investing with intuition—what Jay looks for beyond the spreadsheets ✨ Why we’re overdue for a spiritual revolution
