Jenna Fash from Fash Counseling and Myriam Sanchez from Your Family Wellness Village LLC and Cohera led an interactive workshop for the Glen Ellyn IL Chamber of Commerce on Women leaders & Competition. We discussed how competition can either be an opportunity, barrier, or motivator, and how to overcome competition and turn it into collaboration. We peeked into self-confidence and how it may play a role in perceived competition as it may highlight areas in our leadership where we feel self-conscious about.

Jenna and Myriam will be leading a deeper-dive half-day workshop - open to anyone in the community - on self-confidence/self-esteem in Winter/Spring 2026. Stay tuned!
