About this episode

Jade Shenker shares her journey of overcoming heartbreak, grief, and betrayal to rebuild her identity and find strength through healing.

Sometimes the life you're meant to live can't begin until the version of you clinging to safety falls apart. Jade Shenker is a star of Netflix's Owning Manhattan , an entrepreneur, and an investor whose life looked successful from the outside. Behind the scenes, she was navigating betrayal, heartbreak, and eventually the devastating loss of her father... experiences that forced her to rebuild her identity from the inside out.
