Tracey Smith

6y↑2

Halo Karen, <3 Beautiful heartfelt message that in so many ways tells my story from the child who saw herself as a teacher, being in a system with a strict set of rules, wearing a shield of protection and holding onto a smile that shines so bright. Love seeing that you let go of the risk factor and allowed your inner bud to blossom wide open, you go girl. :) At 49, you're just entering your prime years. Much love from my heart to yours. <3

Karen McGregor

Thanks Tracey - yes, it is unfortunate that some teachers experience being trapped in the system and rules but don't have the resources to change the system or at least adapt it quickly enough to fully do what they love and love what they do.

Matt Helm, PhD

I really loved your Ted talk. The way you brought your dad (and mom) into your talk was really heart warming and inspiring. And I couldn't agree more about lasting fulfillment being in serving others:). I am transitioning (transmuting) into my own adventure and out of the prison (one of your lines). Thank you for modeling and living your fulfillment and freedom.

Karen McGregor

Thank you Matt. I believe in any transition the fulfillment is often an overlooked component - what deeply satisfies the individual soul and resonates with our highest purpose is integral to the process.

Ananya Sharma

1. love what you do, do what you love

Dale Holtz

Great speech I love how you brought up the way you pretrade your life on the outside but didn't reflect the true feelings of how you felt inside. I think a lot of us wear that mask and the fear of taking it off is so hard. That's very inspirational how you faced your fears, risked everything to find happiness then blossomed into an incredible speaker which has encourage people through your words.

Karen McGregor

Thank you - so many masks of fear before we finally reach our purpose and radiate pure love!
