join the
MAKE LIGHT
REVOLUTION
Want to live a more
self-compassionate, self-transcendent, light-filled life?
I got you.
it's possible to turn toward the light.
Even if...
- you're feeling a bit hopeless & helpless about the state of your community (or the world)
- you're struggling with feeling as vibrant & motivated & effective as you once did
- you're finding yourself at the mercy of a society that pushes you to hustle & produce to stay relevant
The truth is that despite (and without ignoring) the darkness and challenges of the world, we each have the power to create and curate a compassionate, self-transcendent, light-filled life.

“Karen inspires us to claim our voices and own the parts of us that make us authentic, beautiful and strong.”

Hi, I'm
Karen
Walrond
AND I'M ON A MISSION TO CREATE A KINDNESS REVOLUTION.
My books encourage readers to identify their values and inner light and use them to make the world brighter for others. Audiences around the world have left my keynotes inspired with hope and a renewed determination to serve. And my one-on-one leadership coaching sessions, workshops and retreats, rooted in the tenets of positive psychology coaching, have helped hundreds of clients unearth their gifts and past triumphs to lead with confidence, compassion and kindness.
Karen and her family split their time between Houston, Texas, USA and Bath, Somerset, UK.
