Karen Ely is a nationally recognized women’s retreat facilitator, inspirational speaker and author who has facilitated hundreds of personal growth programs for thousands of women in the United States, Canada, South America, Africa and Europe. Like everyone, there’s always an inspiring ‘back story’ and for Karen her personal journey has been from suburban housewife and mother to business owner, and her commitment to issues affecting women led her through a vibrant 30-year career in non-profit management some of which included domestic violence to sexual assault and drug prevention to welfare-to-work. But Karen’s story jettisoned forward at 40-years young, as she became an author and retreat facilitator, and in 2003 became founder of the Sedona Women’s Institute, in Sedona, Arizona. The mission was and still is that of providing guidance, tools and support for women seeking authentic lives of peace and meaning. Her retreats, mentoring, workshops, tele-workshops, books, newsletters and social media posts have touched tens of thousands of women all over the world as her work gives guidance and hope to women searching for a safe place to stand.
