Leaving corporate america for solo entrepreneurship. What really happened?

Karen Walrond is a writer, photographer, author, and speaker and that s just during working hours. She s also a licensed attorney + an engineer.

How did Karen go from being the Chief Counsel of one of the largest software companies in the oil & gas industry and the former Chief of Staff of a Fortune 200 company to author a best-selling book The Beauty of Different: Observations of a Confident Misfit, and the creative mind behind Chookooloonks, aTEDxHouston speaker and a press page that includes appearances on PBS, Huffington Post, CNN.com and The Oprah Winfrey Show?

Karen is here to share with you her personal transformation. I invite you to consider if this is possible for Karen, what is possible for you?
