ABOUT KAREN…

Karen Davis King is a first-time author and has been writing creative, inspirational works and poetry since childhood.  Her career began in Corporate America, but her search for meaning and passion in life led her to working with seniors dementia sufferers and later with at-risk youth populations.  In 2012, she found herself divorced with two young daughters, no job and very few resources for a new start. 

This event provided a life-altering  path of self-discovery, authenticity and liberation.  Through countless trials and even more errors, she gained priceless insights that changed how she saw herself and the world around her.  She now has certifications in dance/fitness facilitation, mind/body nutrition, Reiki healing and sexuality/relationship coaching.  Her work and trainings have come full circle and though she doesn’t claim to have it all figured out, she considers herself to be a “Professional Human”, a term assigned to her from a fellow mentor, colleague and friend, who based the title on her ability to embrace the good, bad and ugly aspects of the human experience.  That title seemed to fit and has stayed with her for the last decade.

    As 2025 was happening in real time, I was often gritting my teeth through its constant ups and downs.  But as I take a moment to breathe and look back into its rearview mirror, I am reminded of a relentless truth that has a way of changing the scenery entirely. Life has this way of

This massacre was set off when a plane was shot down above Kigali airport, carrying then Rwandan

I have learned that going to war with the things or people we want to hate and conquer only brings us more to be at war with and more to try and conquer. And we remain in a cycle that never stops because we have missed the fact that we’ve been squaring off with LOVE the whole time.
