“Kara’s visualizations and experiential exercises helped me work through my emotions creatively, bringing me out of my own downward spiraling mind and opening me to my own depth and aliveness at a very difficult time in my life, simultaneously connecting me to a virtual community.”
“Oh. This is DIVINE. I’m reading Kara’s book: 1000 Permissions Granted. Thank you Kara for this amazing work and gift. This is one of those books to gift to someone as a powerful reminder.”
