Hi, I’m Karen Benckenstein
I hold a deep belief that nothing can hold me back. My story includes a journey from returning to college a decade after dropping out only to later graduate with a Master’s degree and going from struggling to finish fitness classes to teaching at a gym, just to name a few. I continue to live a story of breaking free of all limits.
As a result of a drastic shift in mind, body, and spirit, I gained perspective, peace, and passion. I am now living out my dreams of being a writer and helping others find the same holistic wellness.
I write and speak about ways to achieve wellness in mind, body, and spirit while also working as a college teacher and administrator. I am a mother of 4.
Life’s a Journey
Over the last 6 years in particular, I’ve been learning so much about this crazy journey we call life. I have learned how to care for myself better in body, mind, and spirit. I love including these lessons in my writing and speaking.
Current
I am currently editing my two novels and preparing them for publication. I continue to write, speak, and hone my craft.
I’m a member of Texas High Plains Writers and Lone Star Women of Letters.
I have been recently honored to moderate events and speak at the New Frontiers in Writing conference.
