Welcome to the She Talks Confidence Podcast, where we champion the stories of powerful women redefining confidence in every aspect of their lives!
In today’s episode, host Tony Dufresne, PhD, welcomes Felice Cohen—author, professional organizer, and passionate advocate for meaningful connection in a digital world. Felice opens up about her fascinating journey, from crafting bestselling books and conquering tiny living in a 90-square-foot NYC apartment, to her latest project: a heartfelt mission to write a letter every day for a year.
Discover how Felice’s intentional practice of handwritten letter writing is rekindling real connection, fighting surface-level social media interaction, and empowering women to reclaim their confidence, voice, and sense of belonging. Through vulnerable storytelling, Felice shares how slowing down, reflecting, and reaching out—yes, even to strangers—can offer profound healing, joy, and lasting bonds, both for the sender and the recipient.
Tune in as we explore:
1. How Felice’s minimalist journey led her to deeper self-understanding and global recognition.
2. The importance of authentic connection in a noisy, emoji-filled world.
3. Practical steps for overcoming overthinking and starting your own letter-writing practice.
4. Why tangible acts of care (like letters!) are essential for building true confidence and community—especially for women
5. How Felice's simple Morning Routine changed her life
This episode offers approachable wisdom, real talk, and the encouragement you need to begin creating more connection in your own life—one letter at a time!
