When I Die Take My Panties

Turning Your Darkest Moments into Your Greatest Gifts

“When I Die, Take My Panties — It’s funny, it’s frank, it’s inspiring.” — Jenny Allen, Author of "Would Everybody Please Stop: Reflections on Life and Other Bad Ideas"
"Jen's book gives us a first-hand account of how people with cancer are much more than their diagnoses — How their wanderings through the maze of disease can be a part of a greater, wisdom-gathering journey. This is an amazing book!" — Homayoun Sadeghi, M.D.

So often we want to control life – and the truth is we can’t. I wrote When I Die, Take My Panties as wake-up call for YOU to start living your best life RIGHT NOW.  I take you on a journey to learn to be happy with what’s right in front of you, seize the moment, and take risks.

"Coken's debut memoir provides a close-up and, at times, funny view of dealing with the illness and death of her mother while her own life continued on. The relatable content and all-too-familiar story line make this an easy book to engage with.... and Coken's honesty is genuine. Those who take the time to journey with Coken will likely find comfort and a lesson at the end, much as she found through her experiences."
