Episode description and notes

Karina Pen Name K. K. Biernath It is never too late to rediscover yourself and become the person you were always meant to be! Karina, who writes under the pen name K. K. Biernath, is a Polish-born author, poet, and speaker whose work focuses on vulnerability, courage, and the inner and landscapes of women's lives. Now living in Pennsylvania, she draws inspiration from her personal journey—including motherhood and raising children with special needs. She recently published her first book, a memoir, Karina: One Woman's Journey from Fear to Freedom. She wrote this book with her children in mind, to tell them, and others, through the book and her words, that anything is possible in life. You can be whoever you want to be. Do whatever you want to do. Live however and wherever you want to. She lived a life she thought she was supposed to. Career, marriage, family, and success—but inside, she was lost. Her body began to break down, and that was the wake-up call she couldn’t ignore. She then came to realize that her very own thoughts were making her sick. And if her thoughts could make her ill, then maybe her thoughts could also help her heal.
