In this week’s episode, Rebecca Jones is joined by Jaks Cunningham, founder of the Anderson Group. With over 16 years of business development experience, Cunningham recounts to us how her experiences have led her to where she is today. A self described adventurer, Cunningham remembers staking her claim on living on the West Coast when she was just a young girl with a love for Disneyland. Her experiences with dual citizenship have allowed her unique perspectives and has given her the grit to appreciate differences. One of Cunningham’s biggest life lessons has been to not let other people’s irrational fears hold you back. A natural conduit for connection, Cunningham has always had a knack for networking. While she recognizes that success may look different to everyone, her success is found through connecting people and letting the magic unravel on its own.
When asked to give advice to young women following in her footsteps, Cunningham encourages girls to be gentle with the power you acquire. It’s natural to be afraid of change, but ask yourself if it is fear or excitement. The most powerful tool a woman can have is to truly know and accept all aspects of herself.
