One Line: If I’d held a sign fresh from the womb, it would have read “FRAGILE: HANDLE WITH CARE.”

Karen sums up this sentence in one word:
Fragile

This line shows the innate origins of my people-pleasing.

5 Truths About Karen:

  • I'm an introvert and occasional extrovert wannabe.

  • I'm an empath. I don’t feel the world’s pain as deeply as John Coffey, the prisoner in The Green Mile, but I empathize with his burden.

  • I'm an HSP—Highly Sensitive Person—otherwise known as “leaky faucet,” per my son Steve.

  • I'm a good listener (a lost art).

  • I'm an over-thinker. Can you tell?
