How She Really Does It.

Jen Louden: Helping the World + Taking Care of Yourself

Listen Later

Hello + welcome to a new conversation. I have a new guest co-host Jen Louden. 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.

Today we will talk about how we stay awake and take action on what hurts the world while taking care of ourselves.

How do we have the boundaries + self care to live our values?
