Karen Curry Parker is back on Enter the Portal—and this time, she’s opening up a whole new dimension of wellness. In this heartfelt and expansive conversation, Jen and Karen dive into her newest book, The Quantum Human Design™ Guide to Navigating the Body, Mind & Spirit, and explore why this project feels so radically alive for both of them right now.

With 24 books behind her, Karen has helped people connect to their purpose, relationships, and energy through Human Design. But this book goes somewhere she’s never gone before—into the deeper terrain of integrative wellness, where wellbeing isn’t just about treating symptoms, but about tracing the stories and energetic patterns behind them. From midwifery to coaching, Human Design to wellbeing, Karen shares the life-long journey that led her to this work—and how the body often speaks last when everything else in our system has gone unheard.

What unfolds is a powerful look at quantum wellness—a multidimensional approach to wellbeing that honors not just the body, but our connection to source, money, creativity, relationships, and story. This isn’t about a diagnosis. It’s about reclaiming your vitality by listening to the intelligence already within you.

Karen explains how physical symptoms like sciatica, burnout, or chronic fatigue are often signs of deeper misalignment in our energy systems. We explore the Human Design chart as a tool not just for insight—but for integration, clarity, and embodied wellness. Whether you're navigating emotional overwhelm, trust issues with divine timing, or the push-pull between who you are and who the world told you to be, this conversation offers a radically compassionate invitation to begin again—on your own terms.
