Welcome to Episode 353 of Live Happy Now. This week, we're celebrating women in a big way.

I'm your host, Paula Phelps, and today I'm being joined by women's happiness and life

purpose expert, Karen Rockin, who many of you know from the Purpose Girl podcast and courses.

This year, she has once again put together an incredible online

event for International Women's Day, and she's going to tell us more about why this day is so

important, what her free live event is all about, and what she hopes we all learn from it. It's a lot

to take in, so sit back and get ready to get excited. Karen, welcome back to live happy now.

Thank you. I'm so happy to be here, Paula. Thank you for having me. Well, it's been about a year

screw it up. Well, we are gearing up for this second annual The Women's Day event. And this is,

as far as I know, the world's largest event for International

Women's Day. And we put it together, you know, I was sitting there last year, 2021,

after the year that everyone had had with the pandemic. And everyone was on lockdown last year.

And, you know, no matter where they were in the world.

And people were, right? So many people lost jobs. Women were disproportionately negatively

impacted in terms of the majority of jobs lost were by women or women were taking on the majority

of kind of the homeschooling duality that was happening.

And I was sitting there last January like, how to do something?

And I thought, I'm going to throw the world's largest event for international women's day.

And it's important to note that your timing, you had just had a baby.
