After the death of her father, Karen shifted from “beast mode” productivity to “best mode” balance. This awakening became the foundation for her revolutionary “to-die list” — daily practices aligned with your deepest values that prevent the common regrets of the dying.
🌿 In this episode we explore:
Why mortality awareness is the ultimate wake-up call for change
How identity-based habits connect to core values and lasting transformation
Why your eulogy matters more than your résumé
Aristotle’s wisdom on living meaningfully
The seven core values that minimize regret: Authenticity, Bravery, Curiosity, Discernment, Empathic Love, Fun, and Gratitude
Karen’s message is clear: you don’t need to wait until the end of life to live without regret. As she says, “We can be middle-of-life doulas for ourselves.”
