STARTING YOUR DAY OVER

The Karen Kenney Show ·

2025/01/30

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I talk about the simple, yet powerful concept of "starting your day over".I love the power embedded in the idea that no matter how badly your day may have started, you have the ability to hit that reset button - and begin again at any point.I share a story (with permission) about a friend in my spiritual mentoring group - The Nest, who by 4pm, had already decided her “whole day” was ruined. 😆This got me reflecting on how, as children, we would simply call

THE THINGS PEOPLE SAY

The Karen Kenney Show ·

2025/01/16

On this short episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I discuss the fires that have been happening in the Los Angeles area and some of the comments I've seen online.While there has been helpful information being shared about evacuations, shelters and support, I'm also aware of some of the insensitive words that have been said or written.Unfortunately, these are the kinds of things that often get said to suffering people during times of tragedy.As humans, we can be a little clumsy – even when we’re trying

SLOW LEARNING

The Karen Kenney Show ·

2025/01/09

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I discuss the importance of "slow learning" - especially in a culture that’s become so focused on “fast outcomes” and “quick results”.I share about my own experiences of needing enough time to truly understand and integrate new information, rather than just quickly consuming it.I make the case that true learning, comes from first-hand experience and the process of acquiring knowledge through implementation and not just passively ingesting other people’s

HATCHING A PLAN

The Karen Kenney Show ·

2025/01/02

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I talk about the idea of "hatching a plan" as we move into the New Year.I discuss why it’s sometimes important to keep your plans kind of a secret… and how we only want to share those tender ideas with people who will nurture and support them, rather than criticize or crush them.When making new plans, I also suggest slowing down and inviting your Inner Teacher or intuition into the process, using practices like prayer, contemplation, and meditation to quiet

LIFE WELL LIVED

The Karen Kenney Show ·

2024/12/26

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I talk about redefining what it means to create a "well-lived life."I challenge the common advice to "go big or go home," questioning whether that's really the only path to a meaningful existence.I share a personal story about a childhood friend, who passed away recently and whose life left a profound mark on his community.I reflect on how society often looks down on those who choose to live a "small" life, by things like - staying local, putting others

YOUR LIFE IS A REFLECTION

The Karen Kenney Show ·

2024/12/19

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I talk about the idea that, “My life is a reflection of who I have been and the choices I have made.”Meaning that the current state of your life, relationships, habits, and experiences are the cumulative result of your past thoughts, beliefs, and actions.However, to be clear, this doesn't mean your life is solely a reflection of your own choices - it's also influenced by your early life experiences, systems of oppression, and other external factors beyond

THE TRUTHIE-TRUTH

2024/12/12

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I introduce the concept that I came up with called “the truthie truth”. 😆Using a personal story and a character from the popular HBO series, “The Penguin” - I discuss how people often struggle admitting the full truth to themselves, even when it’s clear to others.We’ll dive into the importance of facing difficult truths and the danger of not being willing to be honest with ourselves, whether it’s about our own stuff – or the behaviors of others.I also talk

REPLACE OR REPAIR

The Karen Kenney Show ·

2024/12/05

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I tell a little story about my car that highlights the difference between dealerships and mechanics.I discuss how the approach of “replace vs. repair” can be applied not only to our personal and professional relationships…But also, in how we choose to consume and whether it’s best to renew, recycle, and reuse rather than tossing and buying something new.We also dive into the importance of honest conversations when it comes to repairing our relationships, and

THE KNOW, LIKE, TRUST FACTOR

The Karen Kenney Show ·

2024/11/28

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I put a fun new personal spin on the concept of the “Know, Like, Trust Factor.”The KLT Factor is a common marketing strategy that’s focused on building relationships with clients/customers - so that people will be more likely to “buy” from or do business with you.I take this concept and flip the script – proposing that we shift our focus from an external “know, like, trust” with others - to an internal KLT experience with ourselves.This is an invitation to

YOUNGER YOU

2024/11/21

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I tell a story about how I often talk about “Today me, thanking ‘younger me’ – for decisions that I’ve made.”Which led me to discussing the powerful process created by Richard Schwartz - called Internal Family Systems (IFS) – also known as “Parts work.”I share how it’s so important for us to have self-compassion when reflecting on our younger selves.I also dive deeper into the different categories of our various “Parts”, why they often get created, and

TIME FOR A NEW PRACTICE

The Karen Kenney Show ·

2024/11/07

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I talk about if what you’re doing is worth your time.Meaning, that it’s important to take the time to evaluate the effectiveness of your “practices” – spiritual and otherwise.I also discuss and distinguish the difference between theoretical knowledge and practical application.It’s one thing to try and consume a bunch of information – it’s a totally different thing to actually integrate it into your life.The bottom line is this… if what you’re doing isn’t

THINK SOMETHING NEW

The Karen Kenney Show ·

2024/10/31

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I tell a little story about my desire to "think something new - about something old!"And whether the “old thing” that we wish to see through a new lens - is an old belief, mental pattern, behavioral habit, or a repeated story about ourself or others…Being able to shift our mind to see anew, is a wicked important part of personal growth and transformational work.I discuss some of my observations of how people often speak to themselves in unkind, or critical

WHEN HELPING HURTS

The Karen Kenney Show ·

2024/10/10

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I’m exploring the concept of "when helping hurts." And how even our well-intentioned efforts to help others can sometimes do more harm than good.I springboard off of the idea from the old quote, "The road to hell is paved with good intentions.”And I highlight how the outcomes we hope for, can differ from the original intent behind our “helping” actions.I also share a few examples of misguided help, and how it can affect both humans and animals.We’ll explore

YOUR LAST WORDS

The Karen Kenney Show ·

2024/10/03

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I’m reflecting on my own mortality (and others) and our last communications.I talk about how we never know when or what our last words given or received might be.And how the quality and tone of our last communications with loved ones matter because they might unknowingly be our final words to each other.I also share about the emotional intelligence and maturity required to communicate effectively with one another, even when we’re pissed off or in the middle
