When the "don't be a Karen" meme 1st came out I must admit it was sometimes a little awkward and occassionally hurtful as I had always considered myself to be a kind person who strived to be my best. My beautiful Mum (and Dad) named me after a 1960's black and white TV show and I had always loved that, so on a level it was almost like a mini identity crisis 😅
As a Life Coach, one of my favourite practices that I like to do for myself and share with my Clients is 'reframing' where you take a heavy or negative sitution and consciously bring a lighter and more positive perspective to it, so that is exactly what I chose to do - I designed my own Karen tshirt and "reframed and reclaimed" my name 💪😎
So thanks to this crazy meme which I am strangely grateful to now, I have used this trigger to grow stronger in my identity, love my name deeper than ever before and to tap into my inner sass and truly own who I am 🙏
I invite you to do the same with anything that makes you feel less than the shining being you were born to be 🌟
