Guiding business leaders to align with their inner wisdom
Guiding business leaders to align with their inner wisdom
Break free from busy
You’ve probably already realised that pushing yourself harder, doing more and trying to keep up with the fast pace of life we live in now doesn’t work.
And it’s easy to become misaligned and disconnected from yourself, especially during our midlife shifts when you may find your values, priorities, and energy shifting.
If you feel overwhelmed or that something is missing in your life, and want to embrace a way of working and living that truly honours your energy … you are in the right place.
Lead with trust, wisdom, and intuition
You’ve built an incredible career, but now the pace feels unsustainable. The problem isn’t your ability; it’s how you’ve been told success should look.
You’re now craving a new way of working, maybe even a new direction. One that allows you to maintain your ambition without sacrificing your well-being or connection to yourself.
This is where I come in.
As an expert at strategy, facilitating insights and embracing embodied wisdom, I’m here to show you how to make the necessary changes to create a sustainable, aligned way of working that honours both your ambition and energy … a way to play full out without overextending or pulling back from your fullest potential.

How to let go of the busyness & transition gracefully into rest
Slow down to accelerate your growth
Hi, my name is Karen Skidmore. I’m a strategist, leadership mentor, sound healing and embodiment practitioner with 30+ years of commercial experience and two decades of running consulting and leadership companies.
My operations background and strategic thinking blend beautifully with my deep connection to using intuition and embodied wisdom, a rare combination of skills in the world of business and leadership.
Having experienced peri-meno-burnout in my 40’s, I know the very real dangers of having the wrong kind of business and pushing too hard to achieve goals that weren’t right for me, especially as a woman working through her menopause with our ever-increasing pace of business and life.
I’m now in my mid-50s and post-menopausal, and am on a mission to end the destructive path many female business leaders and founders are on and to show them how to create a new rhythm and flow in their professional and personal lives.
I have the ability to guide others in their use of energy and can easily sense when you are overextending yourself or when you are in alignment with your natural energy flow. I know that when you get out of your head and learn to trust yourself through the rhythms and cycles of growth, you can harness the power of being connected to your body.
It’s through your beingness, rather than your doingness, that allows you step fully into your potential.
Looking For Karen’s Sound Healing & Sound Baths?
“Karen not only passed on a feeling of calm and peacefulness, but the sounds she created from her bowls were amazing. I went in feeling a little unsure and came out feeling relaxed, calm and a total convert.”

Resisting Rest – why we don’t rest even when we know it’s what we need
I'm feet up, watching Netflix, and when I hear the sound of my husband’s car on the driveway, I jump up and switch the TV off. I was exhausted, feeling like an extra on The Walking Dead. I hadn’t slept through the night for months, waking up at 3 a.m. and finding...
The Myth of Busyness: Why success doesn’t have to mean constant doing
Being “busy” has been a badge of honour for many years. We’re surrounded by messages that equate busyness with productivity and worth, especially as women. We often try to balance life, business, and family responsibilities: from work deadlines to family obligations,...
