    n the Season 2 finale of Jane's Place, Jane Miller welcomes back her friend, professional coach, and Rudi's Bakery co-founder, Sheldon Romer. Sheldon closed out Season 1, and there was no one Jane would rather have join her again to close The Strength Series.

As always, Jane leaves us with a few questions to reflect on: • What truly nourishes us?• Can we tap into what we are feeling?• How can we believe in ourselves, trust ourselves, and value ourselves? This episode also includes a special announcement about Earl, Chief Hugs Officer at Jane's Place, and two new children's books inspired by his mission to spread kindness and connection: Hugs Are Happy and I Like Me!. As Season 2 comes to a close, Jane reflects on the power of community, self-acceptance, and showing up for one another. And as Earl always reminds us: Show Up. Hug Often.

    In this episode of Jane’s Place, Jane Miller sits down with the unsinkable Ginny Corsi — trailblazer for women, facilitator extraordinaire, survivor, and one of the most energetic guests ever featured on The Strength Series. Jane and Ginny cover everything from career growth and confidence to grief, resilience, and the courage to say yes even when life feels uncertain. They reflect on losing their fathers at a young age, why girls often struggle with confidence in ways boys do not, and Ginny’s powerful story of surviving a horrific automobile accident and deciding she still wanted to live life fully and fearlessly. As always on Jane’s Place, this conversation is honest, unscripted, emotional, and deeply human. From Ginny’s reflections, Jane leaves us with a few questions to consider: First, do we have the courage to say yes to something that may be outside our comfort zone? Second, what are we naturally good at and how do we truly leverage those strengths? Finally, can we honestly say we have given something our all before expecting something in return? Jane also shares exciting news about an upcoming summer mini-series called Gin Tips — featuring practical life advice from Ginny alongside Jane’s favorite gin-inspired drink recipes. And of course, Earl, Chief Hugs Officer at Jane’s Place, returns with a special message about the Hugs Movement. To learn more about Ginny and her favorite comfort food recipe, visit Jane’s Place.

    On this episode of Jane’s Place, Jane sits down with the incomparable Sue Heilbronner for a deeply honest conversation about confidence, vulnerability, ambition, and learning how to fully own your power. Sue has worn many hats throughout her career, from venture capitalist to coach, entrepreneur, sales leader, and author—and brings both wisdom and practicality to this discussion. Together, Jane and Sue explore what happens when we face perceived failure, wrestle with self-doubt, and question whether we are truly allowing ourselves to step fully into our potential. Drawing from Sue’s book The Power of Passionate Ambivalence, this conversation challenges the idea that uncertainty is weakness and instead reframes it as part of growth, curiosity, and becoming more fully ourselves. In her reflection, Jane shares the moments from the conversation that resonated most deeply with her, including Sue’s powerful reminder that many of us, especially women, play smaller than we should. Jane leaves us with a few important questions to consider: Do we allow ourselves to be passionate, even when it makes us feel vulnerable?Is there an imposter voice holding us back from our power?What limiting beliefs might we still be carrying?Jane also shares one of Sue’s favorite exercises: identifying the one thing we are truly exceptional at, even if saying it out loud feels uncomfortable.
