Coaching with Karen has been a pivotal part of my writing journey. Before coaching, I was just writing poems. With coaching, within six months, I went from a thought to a title, a title to a concept, a concept to a story, a story to a poem, a poem to a poet, a poet to a purposeful author.

So thank you, Karen for your kindness, your strategies, your integrity, and your systematic approach you give to all of your coaching students. Anyone, if you are on the fence, you will not be disappointed. Join CBM’s Author Coaching Group.

I always wanted to write a children’s book about children with Cerebral Palsy. I didn’t have  a clue how to  publish a book. I never knew about self-publishing and I was wary about online publishing offers, not knowing if they were real or scams. It was frustrating to say the least because I knew I had good stories inside of me that I wanted to share with the world.

I tumbled over Karen’s Summit and then I took her “Picture Book” Bootcamp. That changed my life for the good. I have never been happier in my life!

I’ve been around the sun a few times and am not easily lured into major investments, especially in myself. That fear-based thinking changed after my first picture book boot camp with CBM. I dusted off a favorite plaque that reads, “It’s never too late to be what you might have been.”

At the end of the first 3-day boot camp, with complete manuscript in hand, I KNEW I was worth the coaching investment. I recognized that I had finally found a professional group with the skills, knowledge and resources to take me and my writing dreams the whole distance. My first books will be published this year, and if you join us now, there’s plenty of time for you to launch in 2023 as well!

Karen’s personality is a delight, she kept us going at a good pace, allowed for catch-up days in just the right spots, offered a FB forum to connect participants, and was straight-forward, soothing, and not a sales pitch.

I have gone farther in these 21 days with Karen than I have in 9 years on my own.
