Reviews
Strong Beauty: Power Up the Champion Within is a real gem. It's rare for such an accomplished athlete to share so authentically and openly her success secrets, not just for sports but for life. Filled with practical how-to's, her down-to-earth style makes it easy for others to understand and get started. She provides a unique understanding of the power of emotions, often overlooked in our brain-focused society and certainly overlooked by most athletes, and guides the reader to harness their power. Karen's genuine love for people and her passion to help them succeed comes through loud and clear in Strong Beauty. A must-read for anyone from any walk of life who wants not only to win but to truly succeed in the game of life. John White, Director, HeartMath LLC
