EP 43 - Forced to Be Independent Early on | Jerry Chen
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.
