Kara holds a J.D. from Duke Law and for 6 years practiced high-stakes corporate litigation at one of the largest law firms in the southeast. Kara planned her whole life to become an attorney and thought she had everything she wanted, except for one of life’s essential ingredients - HAPPINESS.
Kara enjoyed many aspects of her work as an attorney but knew something was off. Kara left the one profession she worked hard at, she dreamed of, she made her living with… Kara was empty on the inside and knew she would have to make a difficult life decision…
After years of research, experimentation, and many dark moments, Kara eventually found what she was her missing ingredient - HAPPINESS.
Kara started Optimize Your Life and has not looked back. Kara has transformed her life and I now helps others do the same. Kara, Welcome to the Show!
TOTD – “It’s hard to know whether to laugh or to cry at the human predicament. Here we are with so much wisdom and tenderness, and - without even knowing it –we cover it over to protect ourselves from insecurity. Although we have the potential to experience the freedom of a butterfly, we mysteriously prefer the small and fearful cocoon of ego.” The Places That Scare You - Pema Chodron
