“This Speech Will Change Your Life!” COMMENCEMENT SPEECH “What Will You Do With The Power That Is YOU?” Jamie Kern Lima | Columbia University GSB 2025

The Jamie Kern Lima Show

Imagine if 1 tool, that’s a simple question to ask yourself each day, can transform your confidence, your self-belief, and your entire life! I am so excited for this episode with you today, as I am sharing the commencement speech I just gave at Columbia University GSB where I share how this one question I ask myself daily has changed everything in my life and it can for you too!

One of the most empowering questions you can ask yourself, that has the potential to help you truly live your best life is this: What will you do, with the power that is, YOU? This question helped me believe that where I came from, and even my past mistakes, didn’t have to determine where I was going. And, along with my faith, helped me believe my dreams were possible, even on the days when it felt like nothing was going my way, or on the days when I was tempted to tell myself lies like I don’t have what it takes, I’m not enough, and big dreams like this don’t happen to people like me.

What will you do with the power that is YOU? It’s one of the most empowering questions you can ask yourself, because, at it’s core, it’s a reminder that you hold so much power inside of you, and you do! I can’t wait for you to hear this episode and let me know how you’re going to start using this question in your life!
