Inspiring Professionals

Stop settling for the life you've been told to live.

It's time to break free from the safe, predictable path and start building a life that actually ignites your passion.

In a world where many professionals feel trapped

in their day-to-day routine, there's a pervasive belief that there is only one path to a successful life. The problem is that this narrow roadmap to success closes individuals off from unique life-affirming opportunities and leaves them disengaged and living half-heartedly. Life is too valuable to waste just going through the motions!

Karen shares a unique methodology

that combines mindset, brain science, and actionable steps so that people can forge a future that truly excites them. From overcoming the fear of being different to unlocking hidden potential, audiences will be inspired to shatter the restraints holding them back. Karen doesn't stop with just inspiration; she delivers a clear roadmap to making the listener's vision a reality and provides them with the confidence and courage to live more intentionally and redefine success on their own terms.

More About Karen

She made the ultimate life change: she quit her job, took her kids out of school, sold nearly everything and she and her family boarded a plane with one-way tickets, to pursue a life of their own design. This was after she had spent 20 years working as a research and development chemist, creating new drugs in the lab for a variety of central nervous system diseases and cancers.

But several job losses and a general dissatisfaction with life had her looking for more. In spite of their complete lack of savings, no other source of income, and a myriad of other hurdles, she and her husband were undeterred and made their dream a reality in less than a year.

She and her family are still traveling full-time, (leaving pre-Covid) exploring the world and living life on their own terms. During this time, Karen came to realize that too many people feel stuck in their current situations, despite a desire to do so much more; they want to follow a different path but feel unable to make any real changes in their lives.

Her personal experiences allowed Karen to identify the key problem that these people face: their brains are actively working to keep them right where they currently are.

By diving into the brain chemistry behind these genetically coded actions, Karen has created simple, actionable steps that provide a roadmap to success for those looking to break free from the shackles keeping them stuck in their routine lives.

She delivers her message with key insights into the inner workings of the brain in an easy-to-understand manner, while interweaving her personal story of overcoming seemingly insurmountable hurdles to pursue her dream with her family.

Karen captivated the audience from the get go. Her story of breaking free from the confines of corporate America to travel the world and live the life of her dreams was so inspiring. Karen has a unique gift to motivate people to take action. She's an example of what's possible. I highly recommend her as a motivational speaker.
