My own story inspired
me to found PowerPlan Inc. Through decades of schooling, teaching, writing, lawyering, advising, and seeking, I paid
attention to my Outer Power, just as I had been taught to do as dutiful daughter, diligent student, and willing employee.
Nobody taught me to consult my Inner Power!
In fact, no one *wanted* me to consult my Inner Power, because then I might not have been
as dutiful, diligent, or willing as I was ”supposed” to be. My restlessness and sense of not-fitting-in kept me
seeking for more. Eventually I found it . . . within myself! And now I teach others how to find and nurture their Inner Power,
so they too can finally feel that they fit perfectly into their lives.

Several years ago, shortly after her father died and her brother had a cancer scare, Karen reassessed her own life.
Following a period of reflection, she took the courageous step of closing down her estate planning practice to begin a process
of self-exploration. Eventually, Karen realized that she had all the key ingredients to create the life she always dreamed
of. She gave up living according to society's blueprint to fulfill her own blueprint of serving others with her
unique combination of talents and experience. Karen has committed all of her considerable intuition and skills to this
purpose, according to the highest standards of integrity and compassion. Plus, she really enjoys a good laugh!
