Episode 06 – Conversation with Karen Lee-Coss
This episode features an amazing guest – Karen Lee-Coss! Karen is a powerhouse! She’s genuine and authentic, always has insight to share, and anyone who knows her will undoubtedly tell you that she’s a rock star.
What I’ve always loved about Karen is that she’s fabulous, yet grounded. Wise from the challenges and experiences that life has given her, yet she’s incredibly hopeful. She’s honest while being kind, and has her shit together without being superior about it.
I wanted to have Karen on the program because she has a beautiful message about going beyond just surviving difficult times. Her message is about finding purpose and meaning in every moment, and communicating an honest message of hope to uplift and support others.
Karen shares about how some of the challenges she faces have also become blessings, insight into her choices when it comes to her mindset, and how to navigate through stress and fatigue while also being a full-time working professional, caregiver for her mother, a spouse, and a mom.
She’s a woman of faith who is accepting, loving and kind, and she shares her positive message while including everyone; meaning, she’s not preachy nor judgmental.
We talk, we laugh, and we have an awesome conversation!
I’m still working on optimizing my microphone setup when doing in-person interviews and did my best with the resources available to me, apologies for any modulation issues!
