Karen Iverson: The Fine Art of Positive Connection

In this episode I'm talking with my friend Karen Iverson. Karen experienced a difficult season when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. She writes about her journey in her memoir Winning the Breast Cancer Battle: Empowering Warriors and Guiding Loved Ones. This is not only her story, but a guide to help women and their loved ones and caregivers navigate through breast cancer. So much more than that, Karen has a heart for helping others through all the experiences, gifts, and talents the Lord has blessed her with. Her fierce calling is helping others find positivity in their lives even through challenging times. You can connect with Karen at winningthebreastcancerbattle.com on Facebook and Instagram. Karen Iverson is an educator, artist, and author. For the current school year she is working as a teacher for a virtual school and is developing her coaching business. She holds a master’s degree in Education from Columbia University Teachers College and a bachelor’s degree from the University of New Hampshire where she studied Microbiology and English. She is an artist in most senses of the word – she loves to paint and draw and is trained in photography as well as has worked as an actress and singer. She is the author of the book: Winning the Breast Cancer Battle: Empowering Warriors and Guiding Loved Ones, which is a guide for breast cancer patients and their loved ones on navigating the illness.
