I have been fortunate enough to listen to Karen present twice within the past year, and each time I was completely moved and inspired. Her "Stop and Shift" message is so relevant and a very good reminder that despite the fact we cannot control the world around us, we are in fact in control of how we respond. It can be easy to fall into a habit of thinking our emotions and outlook are controlled by environments surrounding us; when in fact, we can impact the world in an incredibly powerful way by choosing a mindset that radiates positivity and goodness. There is a ripple effect to wanting to do better and be better, and Karen so beautifully illustrates this through her own stories and presence. The entire room was captivated by her authenticity and vulnerability, and I know for a fact all of my colleagues were deeply impacted by her message. | Shannon D. | EY | https://peptalk-static-assets.s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/speech-bubble-2.webp

We 100% recommend Karen for your next event. We decided to book Karen because one of her LinkedIn courses matched our conference theme, but we had no idea what we were getting. Karen's presentation was easily one of the best of the conference and she kept the audience engaged. We all left refreshed, motivated, and ready to implement Stop & Shift in our daily lives. She pushed forward the idea that if you are a state of growth individually, you will be in your professional capacity as well! Nothing but 5 stars from the team at Thomson Reuters. Can't wait to have her back! | Alexis D. | Thomson Reuters | https://peptalk-static-assets.s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/speech-bubble-4.webp
