Imagine you’re at your favorite restaurant when — out of the corner of your eye — you spot Madonna.
Most people would whisper about it to their friends and watch from afar.
Not Karen Salmansohn.
Karen — a best-selling author of 20+ books with over 2 million copies sold — didn’t just say hi.
She walked right up to Madonna’s table, dropped her hilariously titled book “How To Succeed In Business Without A Penis” in front of her… and left with a blessing from the Queen of Pop herself.
That’s Karen: wildly bold, infectiously curious, and masterful at turning life’s heaviest topics into delightfully practical wisdom.
Her latest book, Your To-Die-For Life — which is out TODAY — turns the heavy subject of death into a powerful tool you can use to make clearer decisions and live more fully… starting now.
In this conversation, we explore:
- What it means to have a near-life experience — and why you might be having some right now
- The “marble jar” ritual that makes mortality motivating (not morbid).
- How writing your own eulogy can become your ultimate filter for a life well-lived (I even read Karen’s out loud!)
If you’re someone who wants to truly “begin with the end in mind” and live a life you’re proud of, this one’s for you!
