Finding Connection in a Changing San Jose
from Connection is Key Hosted by Gini
In this episode of Connection is Key, I chat with Janikke Klem about what it really means to grow up in San Jose - both then and now. We explore how our city has transformed from agricultural hub to tech center, and what that means for building community here. I share some fascinating stats about San Jose (did you know we're ranked the 2nd happiest city in the US?) while also diving into the challenges we face, like being the most expensive large city in America and having one of the worst gender pay gaps in the country. I also spotlight one of my absolute favorite places - Happy Hollow Park & Zoo - and the joy it's brought to generations of San Jose families (including mine!). Whether you've lived here your whole life or you're finding your way like I did, this episode offers insights into building meaningful connections in a city that's constantly evolving. Plus, I share four simple ways you can deepen your own relationship with San Jose, starting today!
