ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Karen Guzak—mother, artist, yogi, former mayor of Snohomish, and my inspiring mother-in-law—joins me for a heartfelt conversation about the power of building community. At 86, Karen continues to lead and connect through giving circles, book and movie clubs, activism, and a thriving yoga practice. We talk about how to start small, why purpose makes a gathering meaningful, and how beauty and generosity play a role in her every endeavor—from sewing bags to leading solstice walks. Whether you're a hesitant host or a lifelong connector, Karen's wisdom will inspire you to reach out, invite in, and keep showing up.
