Vocal Freedom Episode 38 - Karen Parker
My guest this week has overcome tremendous life challenges and yet is one of the most positive souls I have ever had the joy of knowing. Karen Parker has had several interesting careers starting out in the police force, which was a natural move for her, growing up the daughter of a Police Detective. Karen married her sweetheart Jon, who was also a policeman and she was seven months pregnant with their daughter, Hannah, when Jon was tragically killed while at work.
After a lengthy career in the Police, Karen later moved into education, as a teaching assistant in a Primary school, a job she loved, using her voice to support children. Now she works supporting families in crisis, who need extra support through a company called Always Precious, who are a stop gap to help keep children, who are at risk of going into care, with their families.
A delightful chat with an amazing woman who I believe inspires everyone she comes into contact with. We wonder what do they call it when snow comes where you live?
With regards to singers who resonate with Karen, she is a big fan of the voices of Brandi Carlile, Dolly Parton and Freddie Mercury.
