About

Hey there! I’m Karina
I am a Certified Relationship Specialist. More importantly, I’m someone who helps individuals change their ways of thinking and ignite sparks of success.
Imagine if life was exactly how you wanted it to be, what would it look like? Who would you spend your time with? What would you fill your hours doing? More importantly, what would you think about?
Understanding who we are and how we can use that to create a better version of ourselves every day is a very powerful thing. When you change your way of thinking, you change your life. When you imagine things exactly how you want them to be, you bring yourself in alignment to achieve those things. It’s not just make-believe anymore, it’s real. And it can have a huge impact on our personal and professional relationships.
In 2012, my world fell apart and it was some of the darkest times I’ve ever experienced. It was a time of anger, sadness, resentment, fear, unloved, heartache, insecurity, vulnerability, disgust, worry, helplessness, hopelessness, worthlessness, lack of control, rejection, and low self-esteem. I wasn’t where I wanted to be and wasn’t the best version of myself.
During that year, I read self-help book after self-help book. I took every assessment you can imagine to try and figure out who I was. I started a second Master’s program, this time in Marriage and Family Therapy to try and learn everything I could about life and relationships. But most importantly, I sought help from a reputable mentor who completely changed my life and my way of thinking! It was in these moments that I developed an even deeper and abiding passion to help others.
I help my clients see the true depth of their magnificence and greatness because I know all too well what it’s like to not see my own. I create beauty and joy because I’ve known the depths of ugliness and anguish.
I love to ignite courage and confidence in one’s heart, daring them to dream big! It was only when I pushed through my own fears and limitations and took a chance on my own dreams that I created the success that once seemed impossible.
I understand the power and purpose of creating a strong vision to encourage and develop the life you want and were meant to lead.
