Jen Marples Episode 193

The Jen Marples Show episode 193 is here!

Get ready for some major midlife inspiration as I chat with Karen Marginot on today’s show, who on the eve of turning 60 decided to throw conventional wisdom out the window, leave her cushy tech job, write a book, and launch a transformational coaching business. Karen shares her raw and powerful journey from addiction in her twenties to becoming a badass executive coach at Salesforce, and finally stepping into her true calling as an author and transformational leadership coach. If you've ever thought "I'm too old" or "it's too late," this episode will light a fire under your booty and show you that midlife is THE time to go after your dreams!

About "The Bad Girls Club: Promises of a Spiritually Based Recovery": Karen's groundbreaking book isn't just for those struggling with addiction - it's for every woman feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or searching for deeper meaning. Through her vulnerable storytelling, Karen shows us how recovery principles can help anyone find peace, purpose, and authentic leadership. Whether you're dealing with perfectionism, workaholism, shopping, or any other way we numb ourselves from life's pressures, this book offers a path to feeling grounded and centered, no matter what chaos is swirling around you.

When I first met Karen, I was immediately inspired by her courage and authenticity and I know you will be too! If you're feeling the call to make a change, but fear is holding you back, get ready to be inspired. Because Karen's story is proof that it's never too late to step into the spotlight and live life on your own terms.

Karen is a leadership, Leadership, Life, and Wellbeing Coach as well as a newly minted author releasing her book on Jan. 28, 2025: "The Bad Girls Club: Promises of a Spiritually Based Recovery.”  

Karen and I discuss:

  • Karen's lifelong dream of becoming a writer and how she finally found the courage to pursue it at 60.
  • Her new book: "The Bad Girls Club: Promises of a Spiritually Based Recovery.”  
  • The real talk about women, addiction, and the pressure cooker of modern life, especially post-pandemic.
  • How Karen's recovery story and tools can help all women, not just those with an addiction.
  • Breaking free from corporate golden handcuffs and realizing your worth isn't defined by a salary.
