Ep. 373 - Your To-Die-For Life: How Embracing Death Can Help You Truly Live) w Karen Salmansohn

In this eye-opening and inspiring episode of Hi Felicia, Felicia sits down with Karen Salmansohn — bestselling author, behavioral change expert, and queen of bite-sized wisdom — to talk about her new book, Your To-Die-For Life: How to Maximize Joy and Minimize Regret… Before Your Time Runs Out.

With over 2 million books sold and 1.5 million social media followers, Karen is known for blending psychology, humor, and real-world tools to help people stop living "near-life experiences" and start living fully.

Karen shares her personal story of loss, how reflecting on mortality helped her wake up to a more meaningful life, and why writing your eulogy now could be the most motivating exercise you'll ever do. Together, they unpack what’s really holding people back from joy and fulfillment—and how to take bold action before it’s too late.
