Listen "EP 43 - Forced to Be Independent Early on | Jerry Chen"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, I sit down with my great friend, Jerry Chen, to discuss his life experiences being independent on his own as his family was forced back to Taiwan and living as a foster child. He had to learn to be independent really early in life and navigate different cultural experiences as well. Jerry also opens up about “people pleasing” and how he is working to overcome that. This episode will also feature a lot more knowledge from Randy on the power of “why” and his dedication to the goals ahead of him.Chapters:0:00 – Episode Highlight0:16 – Guest Intro1:27 – Featured Funko Pop2:49 – How Is Your Mental Health?4:17 – Living Two Lives12:05 – Being an “In-Between”17:36 – Surviving On His Own31:32 – What It’s Like Being a Foster Kid45:00 – Where Our “People Pleasing” Comes From54:55 – Flowers to Our Guest55:45 – The Power of Why1:03:37 – Questions from the Audience1:07:48 – Big 3 QuestionsHighest Version Social: https://linkin.bio/highestversion
