The Karen Kenney Show

Here’s something I learned at a young age… time is not guaranteed to us & we never know when the last exhale is coming. So, we’ve got to stop wasting time (our own and others) and start to put our money where our mouth is. We need to step up in both our personal & professional lives and “walk the walk”, instead of just talking about it. Talk is cheap, so we’ve got to get some skin in the game. In...

Social Media Platforms were created to be addictive. Sadly, many of us have fallen into that trap of co-dependency & can’t function without constantly checking our phones.

And when those posts don’t get the likes & shares we’re hoping for or people...

In today’s episode of The Karen Kenney Show, we talk about what I like to call “The Shadow Self”. The younger version of ourselves, our ego side of us that is and wants to be the strong protector. Many times, it rears its head because of childhood trauma and stays with us as we grow into adults. In society, we tend to look at this side of ourselves as the bad, dark side that should be pushed down...

Change is not something that comes easy to most. We have to deal with our own crazy ego & all the bullshit stories telling us we’re not good enough. Add to that the uphill battle we sometimes face with those we’ve been surrounding ourselves with. People who don’t support your new way of thinking and being. People who maybe feel threatened by positive change and would rather pull you down than buil...

Are we only giving to receive something in return? Or are we giving freely of ourselves because we genuinely want to? “Giving to Get” is a sign that you believe something is lacking.
