🎧 Episode 164: Lead Beyond Limits: Thriving with a Hidden Disability with Jennifer Koster (Part 2)

In this second part of our conversation with Jennifer Koster, we talk through the deeper spiritual dimensions of her journey with HEDS and how her experiences have shaped her approach to leadership, vulnerability, and community. Jennifer shares powerful insights about overcoming internalized ableism and offers wisdom that extends far beyond those living with chronic conditions.

We explore:

  • The integral role of faith during both challenging and good times
  • The importance of not underestimating yourself or your team
  • Balancing energy management with ambitious goals
  • The power of vulnerability as a leadership tool
  • Recognizing and addressing internalized ableism
  • Building supportive communities that understand practical needs
  • Leaving a meaningful legacy through presence and service

🔑 Key takeaways:

  1. Sometimes we experience the most growth in our faith during the most difficult times
  2. Leaders often underestimate both themselves and their teams - limiting vision limits possibilities
  3. Energy management requires clarity about vision and values to know when to say "no"
  4. Vulnerability might feel uncomfortable but can be a powerful tool for connection
  5. Addressing internalized ableism starts with identifying limiting beliefs and replacing them with empowering ones
  6. Support comes in many forms - practical help can be just as valuable as emotional encouragement

💡 Quotes to remember:

"Sometimes I listen to my body and sometimes I tell it because if I listened all the time I wouldn't be making any progress toward any goals." - Jennifer Koster

"Don't underestimate what you're capable of." - Jennifer Koster

"We're built for community. We're built to be there for one another and try our best to understand and have a sense of belonging for people." - Jennifer Koster

"My disability can't be thought away... I can't just wish my disability away. I can't take a vacation from it... it's always there as an undercurrent and all of us have undercurrents." - Jennifer Koster

🌟 Featured Insights:

  • The transformative power of reframing limiting beliefs
  • How the EDS community demonstrates exceptional resilience
  • The importance of showing up for others even when you don't know what to say
  • Finding purpose through connecting leadership principles with personal challenges
  • Balancing practical and emotional support for those facing difficulties

📚 Wisdom to Remember: Focus your vision beyond the day-to-day struggles, love yourself and others, and build your community. If we leave our family, workplace, faith community, and friends better because of our presence, we create a lasting legacy.
