2024 offerings and events…
WORK WITH ME:
I want to know what you long for, what moves you to tears of awe, and what provokes you to roar with rage, where you desire to be witnessed, heard, held and loved.
If you are ready to step into all your relationships and endeavors as a BeYouToFull human co-creator with life, I am here with and for you.
What does your wise wild soul want for you?
Let’s tune in together and listen shall we?
In a no cost 20-minute “Unleash Your Wild Soul” session we’ll use your breath and body to discern your soul’s important messages for you right now.
We need each other as never before. Not only as humans collaborating with our whole selves, but as part of the full web of life.
Even if you’re simply curious, I invite you to CLICK HERE NOW to schedule this gift for yourself and the whole planet.
The ‘Unleash Your Wild Soul Session’ is a *no obligation gift* for you to receive valuable insights from your unique guidance system whether we decide to work together or not.
It would be my deepest honor to put my full attention on you.
I’m confident that with support and encouragement to roar, growl and purr, you can hone your inner guidance and full expression to alchemize even the most persistent struggle into supple strength, connection, and wild joy!
Courageous excavation of the diamonds from the underworld also transforms the entire multi-verse of life!
In our one-on-one work you receive highly personalized attention. This is not a “pre-determined program.”
I have helped humans with befriending their bodies and tuning into their body wisdom, exploring and integrating non-ordinary states of consciousness both with entheogens and their own breath, speaking up for their needs in relationship, trusting love again after divorce, and creative alchemy where we explore creative expression to make something generative from your most persistent struggle.
I am ever more passionate about offering personalized one-on-one work alongside group workshops to prepare us for a flowering of collaboration across all the lines that might divide us.
The more rooted you are into your own vast resource, wholeness and deserving of plenty in every area of your life no matter how sensitive, intense or contradictory you perceive yourself to be, the more you trust that you can share and amplify trust among all beings on our planet.
Click here now to schedule our time.
If we decide we are good fit to do some potent work together we will discuss rates and details of your personalized program.
With all my appreciation and love,
Karyn

Art– Earth Prayer: Benediction by Kay Kemp
I’m a featured speaker on QUICKENING Embodied Feminine Leadership Speaker Series on LinkedIn (via zoom).
There’s something about saying YES to what brings you alive and stirs you awake!
There’s something about following through on an inspired idea and receiving confirmation you’re in alignment; an instantaneous knowing that this is something that MUST be brought to life!
That’s what happened when my friend Dewi Maile Lim recently created then invited me to speak on an upcoming speaker series she’s calling QUICKENING!
It’s a LinkedIn Speaker Series on Embodied Feminine Leadership.
In a matter of weeks Dewi and I (along with over 45 other women) have embarked on a mission to amplify the voices of Embodied Feminine Thought Leaders on the typically vanilla business platform that is LinkedIn.
As women on the front lines of evolutionary change at this time of rapid awakening and unraveling on the planet, we feel it’s crucial to create a potent and inclusive space for ourselves on LinkedIn.
I’m delighted to participate in this leading-edge event both to share immediate ways to align yourself with your wild soul’s longings and to connect you with luminary women around the world.
In my presentation you’ll learn what gifts your wild soul has for you and how to tune in and trust it to guide you everyday in every way for greater impact and intimacy. I’ll also share my unique perspective and experience with Feminine Leadership.
I’d love for you to come cheer me on and support this groundswell initiative that will take LinkedIn by storm!
Here’s the thing, you don’t have to be active on LinkedIn or even have an account to participate.
You can join us on Zoom as part of the live audience and lend your support from there or register for the replay if it doesn’t align to attend live.
Dewi will take care of broadcasting to LinkedIn.
If you do happen to hang out there, let’s connect!
Connect with me on LinkedIn
As women on the front lines of evolutionary change at this critical time of awakening on our planet, it’s crucial that we create a potent space for ourselves in the professional realm of LinkedIn.
Take a moment to register now and you’ll be all set to be a part of this groundbreaking no cost series: https://bit.ly/quickeningseries
The more of us that step up to share together around the crucial topic of Embodied Feminine Leadership, the more we will strengthen our ties amongst each other and amplify our individual and collective reach.
This is about collaboration over competition and healing the divides that humanity and the world face today.
This is about making a splash together as women committed to embodying our leadership during this mission-critical time in OurStory.

What previous participants had to say about Creative Alchemy:
“The biggest learnings for me were: Just show up to the moment. You don’t need to be goal-oriented. This series gives time for play, connection, and so much space for your sovereignty.” Allyson, the art + sex witch, she & they
“My greatest take-away was to be gentle and honor my creative spirit. Karyn provides a safe and encouraging space to ignite your creative self. Love.” Marcie Prohofsky – she/her -Richmond, CA
“The practices were great. Honestly, I could spend a year on those! I have been in a stuck place for a while so the “And it’s fucking great!” exercise was refreshing. Greatest takeaway – that I need more…more connection, more openness, more self-acceptance, more community. In the context of other people I could see my stuckness, but also accept it more. This is a beautiful, safe, supportive container for nurturing one’s spirit, creativity and art.” Chris Theberge, Holistic Chef, Singer/Songwriter, Healer she/her Vallejo, CA
“I received multiple healings, in particular, with regard to my inner child. Being in a supportive environment with like-minded participants is comforting. I was able to work on my stuff at my own pace. This is a workshop where one can work on issues in a supportive and loving environment.” Anonymous
