On the HEAL blog right now Mastering Boundaries: 10 Powerful And Effective Strategies


In this Quick Chat episode, Karina shares her story of growing up with a mother who was unable to connect with her emotionally. Karina longed for the nurturing, empowering, and protective love that was absent in her childhood home. Growing up, Karina often felt a deep sense of loneliness. Yet, even at a young age, Karina possessed a remarkable resilience and determination to forge her own path toward an amazing life. In this episode, Karina shares the highs and lows of this path, emphasizing the pivotal role played by the incredible people she fondly calls her heroes and angels. Family is not only defined by blood. Karina’s journey is woven with encounters and connections that brought her wisdom, guidance, encouragement, and protection—gifts she did not receive from her own family.


Karina has written a book called Choosing Magic where she tells her story of growing up and surviving life with no real parenting and how she has been able to turn her life around. You can find Karina at Choosing Magic and if you go to this page and navigate to the end you can get access to Karina's 12 Simple Tools To Enrich Your Daily Life
