Rediscover & Reclaim Your TRUE Nature with Karen Richter

02/05/25 • 38 min

Do you feel truly ALIVE... full of passion and a sense of purpose?

If not, you are not alone! Today’s guest, the amazing Karen Richter, knows exactly what it’s like to feel burnt out, weighed down by grief and just ‘going through the motions’ of life. For years she juggled multiple roles – mother, wife, professional, business owner, and friend – all while trying to ‘power through’ life’s challenges and ‘be perfect.’

When her productivity addiction led to physical illness, she turned to her “happy place” – being in nature, and realized it was doing more than lifting her spirits—it was helping her heal and transform her life.

Now she helps other women heal and reclaim their sense of aliveness through the power of nature!

In this episode, Karen shares her personal journey of healing and awakening through the power of nature, and how women can rediscover their authentic selves by connecting deeply with the natural world.

If you are feeling unsettled by the world today, I highly recommend you connect with Karen, and consider attending her Awakening Aliveness Retreat!

Key Learnings:

Karen knows what it’s like to wear many hats, to juggle several roles, and to feel like you’ve lost yourself somewhere along the line. She knows that many other women feel this way too, which is why she started offering a way for women to connect back with their authentic selves.
Karen’s ‘happy place’ has always been in nature. She used to snorkel and loved the experience of floating in the water and observing the life below. But when she had a chance to scuba dive, and to go from observing to being immersed in the ocean, everything shifted for her. She believes that immersing ourselves in nature can be profoundly healing on all levels, especially for women.
Often women think it’s ‘too late’ to feel alive again, as they once did. But age has nothing to do with feeling alive, and it is never too late. The land where Karen is holding the retreat in Costa Rica in Nov 2025 used to be used for raising cattle, and much of it had been destroyed. But 20 years ago, it was repurposed, and the restoration of the land began. The land has returned to its authentic self, and Karen believes it will support all the women on the retreat to do the same thing!

Live a Problem-Free Life with these 3 Simple Secrets!

Do you believe it’s possible to live a problem-free life?

Most books I have read about living problem-free focus on convincing yourself that you don’t have problems. While that might work for some people, I have found three things that work much better for me and for my clients.

In this episode, I share the 3 Simple Secrets that lead to a problem-free life! I will also show you how to begin practicing these 3 things right away and say good-bye to problems!

Ps- Ready to be problem-free? Let’s talk! Click here to schedule a Miracle Meeting with me

Key Learnings:

We are so conditioned to focus on problems that even when good things begin to happen, we look for the problems. Begin by first recognizing that you now have ‘happy problems’ which means that your life is shifting. Then ask “Is this even a problem?”
The next thing to do is let go of needing to have problems to solve to feel validated, or to increase your self-esteem. If you NEED problems to solve, you will keep having problems to solve. You can still help people, and even solve problems, without needing to.
Instead of focusing on problems, focus on what you truly want and desire. In Lester Levenson’s book, Happiness is Free, he says that as soon as you focus on solving a problem, you give it energy. Focus on the outcome you desire.

“Focusing on problems brings more problems. Focus on what you desire.”

Find Inner Peace in Troubling Times with Paramhansa Yogananda’s Wisdom!

Have you been feeling unsettled, worried or troubled the past few weeks?

As a highly sensitive soul, living a world that feels increasingly unsettled, it is more important than ever that you take excellent care of yourself!

One of the best forms of self-care is taking care of your MIND. Keeping your mind calm and focused on spiritual truths is key!

I have been re-reading the writings of Paramahansa Yogananda to help me find peace during these times. What does he recommend? Meditation.

In this episode, I share a passage from Yogananda’s book, To Be Victorious in Life, to help you remember how to respond to the external world, AND how not to. I also share some simple tips you can start doing today to help you feel better.

And if you want to learn more about the upcoming training, Meditate Like a Mystic, click here to find out more.

Key Learnings:

Highly sensitive souls need to take better care of themselves during turbulent times like these. The most important thing to do is develop a meditation practice that fosters a sense of inner peace and calmness.
Yogananda’s teachings were written and taught during the first half of the 20th century, during the Great Depression and World War 2. Talk about an unsettling time! That is why his teachings are SO helpful for the times we are experiencing now. If his students could meditate in a bomb shelter in England during the Blitz, you KNOW they are powerful teachings!
Some simple things you can do to take care of yourself: a) Limit your intake of sensationalized news b) increase your time out in nature c) increase time reading and studying spiritual truths d) take inspired action from a place of peace and calmness

“Meditation is the key to inner peace, especially in troubling times like these.”
