Karen Allen

"Karen is a world class speaker that is bringing the missing link to corporate America, deeper human connection. She is a remarkable communicator that carries a vital message to the workplace. Her story of perseverance is one that will make a lasting impact for your organization."

"Karen is personable, down to earth, and very knowledgeable in the subject of grief & life’s most challenging moments. At one of my company’s workshops, she grabbed everyone’s attention and lifted our spirits with her messages of self-care and self-awareness. I highly recommend Karen for any speaking engagements especially for conflict management, grief, and healing.

When Karen shared her personal story and gave the example of being called to “Get Up of Give Up”, I got chills. Immediately following her speaker session, my manager and I both exclaimed, “we need to ask her back!” She made my day.”

Karen’s smile, passion, energy, and heart are contagious and in just 30 minutes, our team was reinvigorated to continue onward- whatever that looked like for each of us.”

We 100% recommend Karen for your next event. We decided to book Karen because one of her LinkedIn courses matched our conference theme, but we had no idea what we were getting. Karen's presentation was easily one of the best of the conference and she kept the audience engaged. We all left refreshed, motivated and ready to implement Stop & Shift in our daily lives. She pushed forward the idea that if you are in a state of growth individually, you will be in your professional capacity as well! Nothing but 5 stars from the team at Thomson Reuters. Can't wait to have her back!

“Karen was our keynote speaker for International Women’s Week 2022, sponsored by Women in Experian ERG. Karen truly knocked it out of the park and the survey gave her glowing reviews! Her ‘Stop and Shift’ message was filled with personal stories and practical application for everyday life. She had us fully engaged throughout the session! We want to have Karen back and we highly recommend her for other speaking events.”

“I full-heartedly recommend asking Karen to speak about workplace culture at your next corporate event. We contacted Karen rather close to our virtual event kick-off and she was still able to deliver an exceptional keynote as if we’d been planning it for months. During our initial meeting and interview to see if Karen would be a good fit with our company culture, it was immediately obvious that she would be one of the highlights of our event. Karen brought charisma, energy, and honesty when delivering her message. Her perspective and personal stories resonated with our staff. We originally reached out to Karen because her website said, “Companies hire me because they are committed to creating an environment where their people feel valued, cared for, safe, and are celebrated for who they are and what they do.” That’s the message we wanted to communicate, and Karen helped us do just that.”
