Karen Retardo - Challenge to Go There
Manage episode 433655732 series 2905106
Karen is a registered nurse, a Gallup Certified Strengths Coach, and an ICF-ACC credentialed coach.
One of her greatest frustrations is that women of color, especially Asian women and 1st generation immigrants, are still underrepresented in leadership roles in most organizations.
She is on a mission to coach women of color in health care who wants to create more success, leadership, impact, passion, and purpose in their professional and personal lives.
She named her business Heart-Centered Holistic Coaching because of the realization that the mind, body, and spirit cannot be separated when dealing with issues of well-being, development, and potential. She believes that we are spiritual beings having a human experience.
Karen also works as an In-patient Utilization Management RN at Providence Medical Foundation in Anaheim, CA.
She graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Nursing from Saint Louis University in Baguio City and a master’s degree in Spiritual Psychology from the University of Santa Monica.
When not working as RN or as a coach, Karen can be found bribing her spoiled fur baby Rocky with treats in exchange for cuddles.
