Kara's journey has taken her through various phases of life. She initially entered the workforce in the restaurant business, working long hours for someone else. However, when she discovered that her son was being mistreated in daycare, she made the brave decision to quit. This led her unexpectedly into a career in photography, specifically in the wedding industry, where she thrived for 20 years. A life crisis prompted Kara to attend a Tony Robbins event, which transformed her perspective on personal development and wellness. Delving into this new world, she began by volunteering and eventually earned a staff position, touring with Tony Robbins across the globe. This chapter brought her immense joy and fulfillment. As circumstances changed and required extensive travel, Kara decided to pursue her own path. She returned to her roots as a wedding professional, only to be met with the onset of the pandemic. This crisis reminded Kara of the relevance of the lessons she had learned and the skills she had developed throughout her career and personal growth journey. Realizing the increasing need for support in the mental and emotional space during these tumultuous times, Kara launched a podcast. Her goal was to initiate meaningful conversations and provide answers to the profound life questions that many people grapple with. In October 2021, tragedy struck when her brother-in-law lost his battle with PTSD. This event served as a turning point for Kara, propelling her fully into the arena of mental and emotional well-being. Recognizing the greater demand for her expertise in this field compared to the wedding profession, Kara decided to dedicate herself full time to helping others navigate their mental and emotional struggles. Today, she is committed to making a difference in this space and fulfilling the needs of those seeking guidance and support.
