Jen Louden: Building the Life You Want - a podcast by Koren Motekaitis

Suffering from severe panic attacks, raising an amazing daughter who was a challenge, isn t that true of parenting, and a marriage on the rocks. Does this sound familiar? Are these glimpses into your own life?

Do you often wonder how your life can really be any different than the difficulties you have in your life right now? Did you stop believing that there could be a better way to live your life instead of always letting it happen to you?

Jen Louden has been there. She is the one with the panics attacks, daughter and troubled marriage even though her work was super successful. At times she felt like she was failing.

Remember Jen from a previous interview. She helped start the self-care movement with her first book, The Woman s Comfort Book. She s written five more books, including The Woman s Retreat Book and The Life Organizer that have inspired more than a million women in 9 languages. Many of you may have seen Jen when she sat on Oprah s couch talking about the power of retreats.

Jen and I talk about build the life you want by first taking a look at what gets in your way.

“I suffer from depression from time to time…I was feeling like a fake.”
