    What Becomes Possible When You Take Back the Pen

    In this episode, Kena invites you into a powerful reflection on self-authorship, truth, and the stories we’ve been living - often without even realizing we’re the ones holding the pen. So many women find themselves in a life that looks good on paper, yet something feels off. There’s a quiet knowing that there is more… and also a question of where you fit within everything you’re holding. Kena explores what it means to take back authorship of your life - not from a place of pressure or reinvention, but from truth. The truth of what you’ve lived, what has shaped you, and what you’re now ready to claim. She shares real examples of the complexity many women are navigating behind the scenes - holding careers, families, challenges, and desires for something deeper - and how easy it is to feel like there’s no space left for yourself. This episode is an invitation to consider: What might become possible if you took back the pen and start writing the story of your own life?

    Tell Them Who You Are: Lydia Fenet on Power, Confidence & Self-Authorship

    “People believe you when you tell them who you are.” - Lydia Fenet In this energizing conversation, Kena sits down with Lydia Fenet - global charity auctioneer, keynote speaker, and bestselling author - to talk about confidence, power, and the practice of self-authorship. Lydia has spent more than two decades commanding rooms and raising over a billion dollars for charitable causes. But the real lesson she’s learned along the way is this: People believe you when you tell them who you are. Together, Kena and Lydia explore what happens when women stop downplaying their gifts and begin speaking about themselves with clarity and conviction. They talk about failure as part of the path, the courage to claim who you’re becoming, and why no one is coming to “discover” you - you have to name yourself first. This episode is a powerful reminder that the next chapter of your life begins with the story you’re willing to tell about yourself.

    From Why Me to Meant For Me - A 50th Birthday Reflection

    “I no longer feel like I overcame my life. I know now that I was meant to live it exactly as it unfolded.” - Kena In this deeply personal episode, recorded just before my 50th birthday, I reflect on five decades of living, loving, losing, and becoming. From losing my father at 20 to navigating grief, reinvention, motherhood, and starting again, this is an invitation to look at your own journey with new eyes. For many years, I carried the identity of survivor. As I step into my fifties, something has shifted. I no longer feel like I overcame my life. I know now that I was meant to live it exactly as it unfolded. In this conversation, I share what I’m releasing and what I’m claiming in this next decade - trusting my intuition, using my voice more fully, letting go of people-pleasing, and stepping into a season of creating, leading, and thriving. Your story matters - not just for you, but for every woman who needs to see what’s possible.
