In my first episode of February, Episode 27
“Rachel’s Story,” I interview KC ROCKSTAR special guest, Rachel
Cohen. Rachel is the Chief Bear Officer and Founder of
My Bear Jeff. In our conversation, Rachel and I discuss
her faith journey, favorite scriptures, and why God’s love and
peace are so important in helping those who are going through
trauma. We also talk about how she created her company from several
personal experiences in her life that included her own childhood
experience with trauma when she was diagnosed with a very serious
heart condition at a young age resulting in her
hospitalization. Rachel also shares how God used her
family to help her with her recovery. She also shares
how her trauma experience created empathy for children going
through extreme trauma (poverty, neglect, abuse, and being made to
marry very young). She saw extreme trauma firsthand
while living in Southeast Asia and after she returned to the US she
realized trauma was a growing issue even in her own
city. To bring children in trauma comfort God gave her
the idea to sell teddy bears as a buy one, give one model, and thus
My Bear Jeff was born.
Enjoy listening to Rachel’s inspiring God story
that is behind her My Bear Jeff company and her success.
