Serving frazzled, Type-A women since 2009, Kara deconstructs the broken processes in her clients’ lives, investigates why they might feel not-so-great, and co-creates actionable steps towards a healthier life – a life spiked with passion and slathered with joy. Her work has been featured in Prevention, the Wall Street Journal and Fortune magazine among others. Forget frazzled and famished, try focused and downright fierce.
