I help people move from conflict to conversation
I am a relationship and human behavior expert. My super power is understanding and navigating the dynamics between people (be it personal or professional). For more than 20 years I have helped people like you find tools, strategies, and a path through even the trickiest of moments.
Can’t we all just get along?
To get along is both a behavior and an action
- behavior of bringing your best self to the conversation
- action of moving towards connection and resolution
Let’s connect and see how we might get along, together.
Karen really is like a human-whisperer.
She always helps make the hard conversations easier.
