She works with people individually in her 1:1 program THE QUEST - and in her group program THE NEST. Her approach brings together tools that coach both the conscious and unconscious mind.

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I talk about a little poem that packs a big spiritual punch, “Autobiography in Five Short Chapters” by Portia Nelson.
We discuss how the poem uses a simple but powerful analogy of “a sidewalk with a hole” and how it’s a brilliant mirror for our own repetitive patterns, habits, and choices that often keep us stuck.
I connect this to how A Course in Miracles talks about choosing between love an...
On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I talk about the idea that “Everything old is new again” and why that feels especially true for me as we head into 2026.
I share where this phrase originally comes from and how it still shows up all around us, from old-fashioned baby names and vinyl records - to the way trends, styles, and even problems seem to circle back to current times but with a fresh twist.
I explore how revisiting the ...

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show podcast, I’m talking all about using December as a chance to take your habits for a “test drive” before the new year kicks in.
I share why December, even with all its holiday buzz and end-of-year busy, is actually the perfect time to slow down a bit, get quiet, and start making plans for who you want to be in the year ahead - without any of the ol' stressful, ego-driven pressure.
We all know w...

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I dive into the idea of “adjusting your sails”- a message that came to me one morning and has been bopping around in my mind ever since.
Sometimes, life throws us winds that we can’t control, but we always get to choose how we respond.
So, I talk about taking a pause and tuning in, and getting wicked intentional about the direction we're heading… especially as this year wraps up.
I invite us t...

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I dive into the roots and real meaning behind the phrase - "Mind your business."
Most of us have heard it thrown around as a sassy comeback or a way to tell someone to butt out, but there’s way more to it than just that.
I got inspired to find out where those words originally came from and, being a bit of a curious word nerd, I couldn’t help but do a little research!
Turns out, the...
On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I talk about why it matters so much to just be who you are - no matter what’s going on around you.
Inspired by a quote from Marcus Aurelius in Ryan Holiday's book “The Daily Stoic,” I dive into the idea that we’re all here to show our true colors and do our own jobs as only we can.
Whether you’re making salad for an event or just showing up for ...
On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I dive into the power of an invitation - the good, the bad, and the just plain weird.
I share some personal stories about how our culture has shifted from the old days of friendly, unannounced visits - to a time when people practically hide when the doorbell rings.
Growing up as a kid, I remember it was totally normal for family or friends to drop by with donuts and coffee on a Sunday mornin...
On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I dive into the difference between what’s inherent in us -and- what we’ve inherited from the world around us.
I share how we sometimes confuse the two - taking on beliefs, stories, and even problems that were passed down to us, and then we start thinking that those things are just “who we are.”
Nope! The truth is, th...
EP334 – SOMEONE IS YOU
On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I talk about what happened when I finally decided to stop grumbling about the trash I kept seeing on my running route and actually do something about it!
I share how my sweetie and I run or walk in our rural neighborhood, and how seeing litter along the road always bugged me.
Instead of just judging others for it, I remembered my own past (hello, former cigarette-butt-fl...
On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I dive into the idea of how without awareness or tools, we can end up turning our feelings into felonies.
Maybe not literally - but if we’re not careful, the ways in which we react, lash out, or stew in negativity – can still be harmful.
I share about the importance of emotional regulation and how so many of us were never really taught as kids what the heck to do with our big feelings.
I talk ...
On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, we’re talking about hope.
What it really means, why it sometimes gets a bad rap, and how we can look at it through a bunch of different lenses.
I share why hope isn’t just some fluffy, pie-in-the-sky idea - but actually a powerful mindset and a skill that we can practice every day, especially when the world feels crazy, overwhelming or out of control.
We talk about how hope is more...
On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I talk about something that really lit my heart up.
It’s all about how a simple question like, “Are you OK?” - can make a world of difference.
Inspired by Australia’s “R U OK? Day,” I share why checking in on our friends, family, and even ourselves is wicked important, especially with all the heavy stuff going on in the world.
I open up about my own experience and how sometimes, ju...
KKEP331 – BEWARE THE TEMPTATION
On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show podcast, I talk about a recent trip to a casino (for my sweetie's gig with Sully Erna of Godsmack) that really got me thinking about the world we live in today.
Walking into that place was like stepping into a full-on sensory overload - bombarded by flashing lights, nonstop sounds, and a vibe that just pulls you and your brain in from every direction. ...
On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I dive into the idea of creating your own personal board of directors.
Inspired by my friend’s business and my own journey, I explore what it means to have a group of trusted people in your life who can offer guidance, accountability, and support - kind of like your own “Knights of the Round Table.”
I share how this concept goes beyond the corporate world and can be a powerful too...
On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I talk about the power of stopping before you start - especially when it comes to how we communicate with others.
I share a little story about catching myself as I was about to fire off a sarcastic response (classic Masshole move!) and realizing that just because something comes easy or is a habit, doesn’t mean it’s always the best way to show up.
Sometimes, it’s worth pausing and askin...
