Karen does a really nice job of both sharing her experience and delving into the critical questions parents have about balancing love and backbone in successful parenting. It’s a challenge as our kids enter the teen years to both let go and stay connected and supportive of their development and desire for independence.

Karen is a wonderful host, and her questions were always on target for her audience. In a very comfortable way, I enjoyed our talk as we explored ways for parents to nurture their children’s success in school while improving their own lives. Karen’s keen interest in this parenting subject is further enhanced by her love for her own grown children which she talks about freely adding spice to the session. I would recommend Karen and her Podcast, AVOID THE MAZE to all listeners that want to improve their lives. Great experience!
