I believe…
Perception creates reality, the experience of it anyway. (Not to be confused with law of attraction, victim blaming, toxic spirituality or bypassing. Hard pass.)
Being professional and spiritual, dare I say magical, are not mutually exclusive.
Spirit whispers until it screams.
A life well-lived is a life savored to the very last drop.
Pleasure may not be necessary but it is essential.
Experiencing the more-than-ordinary adds depth, meaning and color to life.
We are never alone.
You already know.
Your heart will break. Why not let it break open?
Life is both too long and too short to hate your job or work.
Awe is a doorway to connectedness and happiness.
Grief is for the living. What is remembered lives.
At the foundation of every successful, fulfilling relationship is open communication, honesty and respect.
People’s shit runs deep.
Inspired living comes from touching wild places.
The entire Universe moves through your body. Love, honor and respect her. Always.
You are (already) enough…and yes…you absolutely can.
Mostly, I believe in love and magic.
“I felt totally relaxed with you and the session was fun and upbeat. You really helped me uncover some of my fear patterns and the exercise you shared with me will be something I will use going forward to help me take action in my business.”

Hi, I’m Kara. I’m a (somewhat) recovering Type A, empath, intuitive, former corporate ladder career climber and not-so secret hedonist. A proud Jersey girl with direct, down to earth delivery and a wicked sense of humor. I’m told my voice is calming and my “presence” is both grounding and inspiring. A long intellectually driven career in HR almost made me forget, but 12+ deeply magical years in Los Angeles helped me remember that one of my favorite things is exploring naturally expanded states of consciousness as vehicle for change. Awe as a doorway to spiritual connection and increased happiness can not be overstated.
Being spiritually curious, energetically sensitive and career focused has had its challenges. I’ve become adept at managing personal energy and stress levels. I’m also not too bad at shapeshifting into a suit wearing boardroom dweller when necessary. I’m well versed in all things natural, holistic and complementary. Much of my personal development work is about knowing who you truly are, getting clear on who you want to be, claiming your personal power and deepening your connection to both yourself and something greater than yourself so that you can fully and authentically experience this life. Because this has been my life’s work, clients who are also willing to go there are some of my favorites. I do this work and am compelled to share it because its brought me profound joy and happiness.
A lifelong pursuit of all things esoteric, spiritual and psychological has culminated in a beautifully diverse and ever expanding body of work. To give you an idea of just how diverse:
B.A. in Psychology.
30 years experience in meditation.
20 years of HR experience.
20+ years advising, coaching and consulting in the areas of business, career, relationship dynamics, conflict, energy management and holistic health.
Graduate level study in Clinical Psychology and Asian Medicine.
A literal stack of certifications including certified professional coach (3x over so far), meditation teacher, clinical hypnotherapist and (most recently) 200 hour yoga teacher.
When I’m not working with clients or learning something new, I can usually be found listening to music with my husband, playing with my pets, wandering somewhere in nature or daydreaming about concerts and our bicoastal lifestyle in the “aftertimes”.
