Who Am I, Who Are You, Who Are We?

About Who Am I, Who Are You, Who Are We?

Who are you? What do you stand for? What do you believe in? How would your family and friends describe you? Does anybody know the real you? Have you ever met somebody and immediately found yourself drawn to them? What about somebody you somehow knew you simply couldn't trust? Or have you ever taken a shine to a person, only to find that not all that glitters is truly gold? My name is Ken Jenkins - I'm a professional coach, author, and crisis response strategist. In my career, I've responded to fourteen mass fatality events; events have changed the lives of countless individuals, from those directly involved to the families, friends, and coworkers of those who were lost - and even myself from time to time. Over the course of my career, I've met people from all walks of life, and it's out of those very relationships that this podcast was born. Human beings are fascinating creatures. Join me in my journey to find the center of each and every one of us as we explore Who Am I? Who Are You? And Who Are We? A podcast about exploring who we are as individuals, how we show up and how others see us. A podcast about you, me, and the people we interact with every day. A podcast about who you really are, and what that means for the rest of us.
