This is not the update I had hoped to give you this week. However, it is one that is too life-altering not to share.

Last week, we faced a mental health crisis that has turned my life upside down. In this week I share with you what's it's been like in the aftermath of a nearly life-ending event.

I'm on Spring Break this week. Other than keeping tabs on my bathroom renovation, there isn't much fun or frolicking going on. I recorded this little update on the freeway so pardon the hustle and bustle in the background.

Breaking news is on the way! After not quite 5 months in "retirement", I’m taking a step in the direction of a new dream. In this week's episode I recount how whenever I stop procrastinating, face my fears and actually take even the teensiest action step towards what I want to accomplish, inevitably synchronicity and serendipity start swirling and magic happens.

The weather in Southern California has been extraordinary lately. We've had loads of rain and last week had an epic windstorm. The gale force winds knocked out power and took down trees. It also stirred up a lot of thoughts for me.

In this episode I reflect on my journey and how far I've come in the past few years.

After a long stint of solo episodes, I'm breaking things up this week. Today, you finally get to meet my dear friends from college, Emily and Grace. Together we make up the KEG Party! (Karen, Emily & Grace)

It's supremely meaningful to me to have friends like Em and Grace with whom I can talk, laugh and confide in. Grace and Emily have been my faithful friends for over 35 years since our days at UCLA and have been my ever-present sounding board over the last 5+, as I've been figuring out what's next for me in life. We talk about pretty much everything--big and little--including things that a lot of people shy away from discussing in this often caustic, "cancel-culturey" world we live in.

In today's episode, you get to be a fly on the wall during our KEG Party and our conversation about race and much more.

When next in the Bay Area, be sure to check out Grace's dreamy destination property Asombrosa and enjoy a spectacular meal by Chef Stephane at TC Provisions in downtown Petaluma.

Make sure you follow them on Instagram at @asombrosa.soco and @tcprovisions.

As I continue on my journey of self-discovery, I see more and more clearly my ingrained ways of being/old patterns and wiring that I am wanting to shift. In this week's episode I share a little bit about how, as I "Dance with Discomfort" in this season of my life, how important (and okay) it is to rest.
