Karen found so much freedom in her life when she found Nonviolent Communication. She was attracted to the simplicity, and connection that resulted when she increased her skills and emotional intelligence as she was able to communicate more compassionately. Karen also found a lot more access to self-empathy. She is a certification candidate registered with the Center for Nonviolent Communication. She is part of the Trainer Certification Community Pathway and hopes to be certified by summer 2026.
