Question: Your name is Karen, so how do you deal with all this “Karen” stuff on social media? Are you a “Karen”? This question comes from the Typically Invisible Newsletter - 3 Favs & a Q - Sept. 3, 2020 edition. Hahaha! That’s a great question! It used to make me irritable.

(This is done to discredit her in the eyes of others in an attempt to strip her of her power.) I am Karen. I am proud to stand with my sisters - the witches of old and the Karens of now - and do my healing work in the world. You may never see my power, but you will be impacted by it.

Rather than be a victim of culture, I get to be a bada$$. That works for me! P.S., If you’re wondering what power I possess, the power within me is the same power within you and all of Creation. When I sing my Song of Power, the power within you resonates as well. You have three options:
I hope you choose #3!
