The Human Connection: The Most Valuable Currency
Jewel has a new song called Character Currency that highlights the idea that human connection and having meaningful relationships is the most valuable currency there is. She highlights her insights on how being authentic, real and open with yourself and others you can build a deeper and more resilient relationship that makes ones personal and professional life more enjoyable and successful. Her stories of working hard and building relationships ships in the male dominated space of the music business in the 80's, 90's and 2000's was made successful by her willingness to be vulnerable, empathetic, to reach out and build personal relationships with her label, the executive and administrative staff and how it resulted in them wanting to help her. Jewel's second best skill to music is building meaningful connections with others, individually and ultimately a community. Her stories wrapped in music highlight how her remarkable stories of going from a homeless girl to an international rock star and how she did this by being her authentic self, being vulnerable, honest and kind towards others is very inspirational.
