Community Stories

Attended Navigating & Thriving in your Mid-Career

Rachel T, 36, Principal Economist

"I became a mom 6 months ago and have been looking for tools to find my footing in this new season of life. 

​

The 4-part workshop design helped provide clarity on concrete areas I need to review and at what frequency.

 

Karen and Minli were genuine and experienced facilitators. I loved hearing perspectives from fellow participants - made me realize that we’re on similar journeys."

Jenna Y, 52, CEO of PE-backed company 

Attended Navigating Sticky Situations Workshop

"Your frameworks with real case studies allowed clarity and great discussions where we could learn from each others' experience.

 

The best parts? Getting practical tools, and having heart-to-heart conversations. 

 

As a CEO, I am often on both sides of the issue - as a woman navigating challenges and as someone who wants to support women effectively. Your approach appeals to both!"

Amanda O, 41, VP in Series B

Start-up

Received 1:1 support from an ally

"As a leader in tech and mom of two, I stopped listening to my body and was grinding at work in unhealthy ways. 

 

I just (one hour ago) got an incredible job offer that is really going to change life for me and my family - and Karen your support and guidance were absolutely critical in getting out of the shame and isolation in parting ways with my previous situation. So glad to be in this community."
