Episode Synopsis

Jessie Kanzer, author of 'Don’t Just Sit There, DO NOTHING' and the newly released 'Unlocking Your Inner Zelensky', was born in the Soviet Union as Asya Bronfman, a descendant of Holocaust survivors. As an 8-year-old refugee in the USA who only spoke Russian, Jessie (or “Asya” then) yearned to fit in, changing her name and much about herself. Experiencing depression and an eating disorder, Jessie pursued Hollywood fame, men, and the American Dream but always fell short. We discuss her refugee experience and her latest book on Volodymyr Zelensky. Kanzer’s writing has appeared in The New York Times, USA Today, and the Washington Post.   LINKS   Books on Amazon Unlocking Your Inner Zelensky: Lessons We Can All Learn from an Unexpected Leader Don't Just Sit There, DO NOTHING: Healing, Chilling, and Living with the Tao Te Ching   The Mojo Sessions website www.themojosessions.com   The Mojo Sessions on Patreon www.patreon.com/TheMojoSessions Full transcripts of the show (plus time codes) are available on Patreon.   The Mojo Sessions on Facebook www.facebook.com/TheMojoSessions   Gary on LinkedIn www.linkedin.com/in/gary-bertwistle   Gary on Twitter www.twitter.com/GaryBertwistle   The Mojo Sessions on Instagram www.instagram.com/themojosessions   If you like what you hear, we'd be grateful for a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify. Happy listening!   © 2023 Gary Bertwistle.  All Rights Reserved.
