In this season 3 of Vida, I Wish I Knew Then Podcast, Jess starts with a life and career update, leading into a profound exploration of the theme: "Taking Action on Your Dreams." She shares a personal story from her college days about an invention idea that others, including her business college professors, deemed impossible.

Reflecting on this disappointing memory, Jess uses this experience as a learning lesson, encouraging listeners to pursue their visions wholeheartedly, regardless of how improbable they may seem, and to avoid letting others take ownership of their dreams.
