Self-Advocacy Series: Chatting with Karel Chan

Welcome to the first interview series! Up first is Karel Chan (IG: @anchoredawakening), a therapist turned happiness coach. Here's a little info on my guest this week: Karel Chan's goal is to help soulful women discover and connect with their mind, body, and spirit to find their true purpose and live a happy, fulfilling life. After 10+ years as a clinical mental health therapist, she left the therapy industry and her private practice in Feb 2023 to focus on coaching full time! Karel loves talking about happiness, love, soul work, and mental and spiritual wellness, especially for women, about women, and with women. She says, "I always learn something more about the individual yet also universal experiences of modern women in the west, which just helps me to be even more passionate and effective in my work in helping women reach higher and more expansive levels of self-love, purpose, and happiness."

Self-Advocacy: How do you show up for yourself?

Welcome to the Random & Wonderful Podcast! This next series of episodes will be about advocacy. How do you show up for yourself in the middle of adversity? Self-advocacy is two-part practice and can only be initiated by you. Quick highlights from the episode: Know yourself and understand your needs, goals, and challenges. Be vocal about what you need and acquire resources for your growth. Create a space in which you can grow. Network with others that have the same goals and vision that you do. Knowing you need a change and taking that first step towards that new path are two different things, but you don't have to do this alone.
