The Power of Connection Through Letter Writing
Welcome to the She Talks Confidence Podcast, where we champion the stories of powerful women redefining confidence in every aspect of their lives!
In today’s episode, host Tony Dufresne, PhD, welcomes Felice Cohen—author, professional organizer, and passionate advocate for meaningful connection in a digital world. Felice opens up about her fascinating journey, from crafting bestselling books and conquering tiny living in a 90-square-foot NYC apartment, to her latest project: a heartfelt mission to write a letter every day for a year.
Discover how Felice’s intentional practice of handwritten letter writing is rekindling real connection, fighting surface-level social media interaction, and empowering women to reclaim their confidence, voice, and sense of belonging. Through vulnerable storytelling, Felice shares how slowing down, reflecting, and reaching out—yes, even to strangers—can offer profound healing, joy, and lasting bonds, both for the sender and the recipient.
