How does a corporate attorney become a creative entrepreneur? Karen Walrond is a writer, photographer, author, and speaker — and that’s just during working hours. She’s also a licensed attorney + an engineer. How did Karen go from being the Chief Counsel of one of the largest software companies in the oil & gas industry and the former Chief of Staff of a Fortune 200 company to author a best-selling book The Beauty of Different: Observations of a Confident Misfit, and the creative mind behind Chookooloonks, aTEDxHouston speaker and a press page that includes appearances on PBS, Huffington Post, CNN.com and The Oprah Winfrey Show? Karen is here to share with you her personal transformation. I invite you to consider if this is possible for Karen, what is possible for you? “Sometimes leaps really aren’t leaps.” ~ Karen Walrond, on How She Really Does It LISTEN HERE In this interview we discuss: - Practical – lawyer/engineer/fortune 200 company | Not practical creative entrepreneur – how did you ignore the rules society tells us?
