The ‘Why Not Me?’ Mindset
Jenny went from cold-emailing her way into Silicon Valley to leading global policy for companies like Google and Meta. Now a venture capitalist, best-selling author, and keynote speaker, she teaches you how to lead with grit, clarity, and boldness, so you can stop waiting and start owning what’s next.
As Seen In

OWN THE AI ERA
Everyone’s talking about what AI might do. But you’re focused on what you will do to lead the AI revolution. You don’t need another headline to tell you how fast things are moving, you’re a leader ready to move with it and win in the next era of business.
In Own the AI Era, venture capitalist and tech policy leader Jenny does just that, equipping professionals to stop waiting for clarity and start leading through disruption. Backed by her Why Not Me? mindset and GRIT Framework, she shares the strategies she’s used to advise top tech companies and investors on how to lead in an AI-first world, with confidence, speed, and purpose.
THE FOUNDER FACTOR
You’ve got the vision of a multi-million-dollar company. You know this is your path, and that your business can change not only your life, but the lives of millions. But building a successful company takes more than a big idea and a strong work ethic. It takes strategy, resilience, and relentless mindset work.
In The Founder Factor, venture capitalist Jenny shares real-world stories of what it truly takes to get funded and build something that lasts. Backed by her Why Not Me? mindset and GRIT Framework, she breaks down the habits, decisions, and mental shifts that separate the founders who scale from the ones who burn out.
BUILT TO BREAK BARRIERS
You’ve done everything right. You got the education. You work harder than your peers. You show up prepared, deliver with excellence, and still, others keep advancing while you’re left wondering why.
In Built to Break Barriers, Jenny speaks to those who’ve been overlooked, underestimated, and shut out. As a first-gen VC who broke into Silicon Valley with no connections and went on to lead global policy at top tech firms, she knows what it takes to rise when the system wasn’t built for you. Through her Why Not Me? mindset and GRIT Framework, Jenny shares a clear, actionable playbook for underrepresented leaders ready to rise, on their own terms.
THE CAREER ACCELERATOR
You’ve done the work. You’ve earned the trust. But somewhere between performance reviews and team wins, you started asking: What’s next, and how do I claim it?
In The Career Accelerator, venture capitalist and leadership expert Jenny delivers a no-fluff roadmap for professionals ready to stop waiting and start moving. Backed by her Why Not Me? mindset and GRIT Framework, she shares the strategies ambitious leaders use to step into executive roles, earn more influence, and take control of their career trajectory.
LEADERSHIP THAT OUTLASTS YOU
You’ve climbed the ladder. You’ve earned the influence. But real leadership isn’t just about your title, it’s about what you create for those coming up behind you.
In this keynote, venture capitalist and leadership expert Jenny challenges senior leaders to think beyond their own success, and focus on what they’re passing on. She shares how to teach the Why Not Me? mindset and her GRIT Framework to the next generation of leaders, helping you build teams that are bold, resilient, and built to lead long after you’re out of the room. This isn’t just about managing people, it’s about multiplying potential. Because the most impactful leaders don’t just grow companies. They grow other leaders.
