Karen is 56 years old, a mother to Connor, and has been married to her husband Phil for 31 years. She is obsessed with her four labs: Adina, Rosko, Louise, and Parker, who often gets into trouble.

In her free time, Karen enjoys being near the water and paddleboarding in the summer. Since entering menopause, she has developed a passion for barre classes, benefiting her mind and body. She also loves gardening, cooking, and traveling, with Italy, Greece, and the Maldives on her bucket list.

Karen's health journey began after her mother passed away in the late 90s, and she was diagnosed with thyroid cancer at 30. After overcoming this, she had her son at 34 and experienced postpartum anxiety. By 39, she faced panic attacks, insomnia, and severe anxiety, which led her to explore integrative medicine.

2010 she quit her corporate job and attended The Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN), earning her first certification in 2012. Her most recent certification was in 2019 where she graduated from the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy.

Karen's expertise lies in women's health, particularly for ages 45-65, focusing on perimenopause, menopause, anxiety, depression, and gut restoration.
