Ken Jensen is an author, life coach, Marine Gulf War vet, former addict & alcoholic, and former bipolar sufferer. He’s even been dead a few times and survived 2 comas! In 2004 he turned all that around, including addressing his bipolar disorder without meds! Now he helps other trauma survivors create small businesses to share their stories.

It only took Ken and me a handful of seconds before we knew we'd be fast friends. By the time our chat was over, we wished we were neighbors. :) Ken is a natural and gifted storyteller and has worked hard on becoming an even better listener and guide - which is at the heart of his coaching practice. In our conversation today, we touch briefly on his journey to realizing that coaching would be an excellent way for him to share his life and his gifts with others in an impactful way.

We also explore the importance of getting literal "buy-in" from your clients, the ways in which calmness and quiet have emerged from the wildness of Ken's early life, and how simple (AND HARD) the real work of coaching is.
