Jennifer Cohen helps you overcome what is standing in your way

When you hear Jennifer Cohen speak on how to overcome fear, whether it be fear of rejection, fear of failure, or even fear of the unknown, it is easy to quickly become attentive to what the international speaker has to say. With a magnetic presence, Cohen pulls her audience in with steady confidence and a strong conviction in what she has to say – that fear stems from self-doubt. Cohen believes that self-doubt is the reason why people don’t get the body they want, the job they deserve, and more, and this self-doubt is why people don’t change and don’t take action. 

Cohen, who is an entrepreneur, best-selling author, fitness expert, keynote speaker, podcaster, and educator, has coached Fortune 500 executives, celebrities, and other high-achievers, helping them step into their own power. Having cultivated discipline, self-care, and a steadfast belief in herself, Cohen lives what she preaches, and her beauty and wellness philosophy is a reflection of her mindset – that confidence is about being bold.

Being Bold

Believing that true beauty isn’t about following the latest trends or trying to be perfect, Cohen focuses on habits that drive positive behavioral changes and encourages others to achieve their biggest dreams through boldness. 

Cohen believes that self-doubt is the story you tell yourself why you can’t do something or why something isn’t possible, and it is why smart people often fail. While self-doubt and failure aren’t inherently linked to intelligence, some smart people are often able to predict all the possible outcomes of a decision, and it is why they often don't take action. A strong indicator of success is boldness, according to Cohen, who states that bold people tend to think of all the good things that can happen when things do go right. Boldness is the “secret sauce” that helps put people on the path toward success. 

Through her full-mind body approach that keeps her sharp and ready to take on the world, Cohen is inspiring others to be bold by asking for what they want, versus taking what is given to them.

Setting the Tone for Confidence

Setting the tone for confidence and channeling your inner boldness begins when you wake up in the morning. According to Cohen, how you start your morning determines the kind of day you will have. As a firm believer in high-performance habits, Cohen opts out of checking emails or scrolling social media and begins her day with movement, mindfulness, and intention-setting.  

With her morning workout, including a mix of strength training, bodyweight exercises, and mobility to wake up her muscles and sharpen her focus, Cohen believes that it is not the amount of time you spend in the gym; it is how efficient you are. Exercise is about creating mental discipline and setting up your day for success. 

Also included in Cohen’s mornings are hydration and nutrition. The entrepreneur swears by protein-packed breakfasts that help fuel your body and keep your metabolism high – processed foods and sugar have no place in her routine. Instead, she focuses on whole foods, lean proteins, and superfoods that help keep her skin glowing as much as boldness does. Also helping her skin and confidence, Cohen incorporates skincare into her morning routine, believing that skincare is a form of self-care. Cohen prioritizes SPF protection and high-quality skincare products that help nourish her skin; she keeps it clean, simple, and consistent.

Glowing from Within

Having worked with some of the biggest names in business and entertainment, Cohen has learned that true beauty comes from how you carry yourself. 

The keynote speaker shares one of the biggest lessons she has learned – that your mindset directly impacts how you look and feel. When self-doubt creeps back in, accompanied by negative self-talk, it is not just your mood that is hurt, but this negative energy can show up on your skin, your posture, and your energy. This is why mental wellness is a large component to Cohen’s routine. 

Daily practicing meditation, deep breathing, and gratitude exercises, taking five to 10 minutes every day, Cohen helps center herself, visualize success, and express gratitude that has (over time) built her confident and resilient mindset. 

While your boldness comes from within, Cohen also understands the importance of haircare and body care, but rather than trying to mask her beauty, she enhances it by using light, breathable makeup that complements her natural features. Other essentials of Cohen’s include a high-quality tinted moisturizer, a strong brow game, and a natural lip color. She also prioritizes deep hydration and minimal heat styling to keep her hair healthy and strong, as well as opts for clean, non-toxic products for her skincare routine. 

By incorporating simple and natural beauty approaches into your daily routine, you can help your inner boldness shine, leading to longer-lasting and more fulfilling relationships, careers, and goals.

The Secret to Staying Bold

Confidence isn’t something you just wake up with; it is something you have to build. Through long-lasting, daily habits, self-care, and a refusal to settle for anything less than greatness, you show up differently in the world. 

Confidence means you have to do the work, and this work can look differently to everybody. Whether doing the work means showing up at the gym, sticking to a self-care routine, or setting and sticking to boundaries, doing the work is about embracing your boldness and stepping out of your comfort zone to overcome your self-doubt. 

Cohen often speaks about the power of body language and presence, believing that walking into a room with your shoulders back, head high, and confidence in every step you take can change everything. Confidence can be seen and felt by others, and glowing both inside and outside can help you feel more confident in yourself and stay bold. 

The true definition of the boldness and the confidence glow isn’t about perfection; it is about taking care of yourself, nurturing both mind, body, and soul to create the person who knows their worth. Through boldness and staying confident, you can overcome whatever is standing in your way, and Cohen is ready to help.
