Finding Yourself Again: Career Change, Healing & Chasing Dreams with Karen Benckenstein

Caylar Brinkman Season 1 Episode 17

In this episode of The Nourisher Podcast, I sit down with Karen Benckenstein who is a teacher, writer, and encourager who knows what it means to begin again. After walking through divorce, career changes, loss, and seasons of struggle, Karen found the courage to reinvent herself and return to her first love: writing.

Karen opens up about what it takes to pick yourself up after life’s hardest seasons, the lessons she’s learned about resilience, and the importance of surrounding yourself with a supportive community. She also shares how writing became both a personal outlet and a powerful tool for helping others embrace authenticity and live a life that feels true to who they are.

This heartfelt conversation is a reminder that healing isn’t linear, reinvention is always possible, and it’s never too late to chase your passion. Karen’s story will leave you inspired to take that next step toward your own boundless life.
