As an Ordained Minister and High Priestess with the Temple of Witchcraft, Karen has been a Teaching Assistant for Shamanic Witchcraft and High Magick (Witchcraft III and IV, for HPS Kelley Ross).

Beyond her role as TA, she has created a 10-month Reiki Master Practitioner program that meets once a month. In her program, you are taught with hands-on experience, field trips, and more. Students travel from all over to take these original classes from a Holy Fire Reiki Master Teacher known as “Reiki Mama”.

Karen is the manager of the largest St. Louis Metaphysical store, Pathways New Age Books and Gifts, and has been serving the Pagan community for over ten years.She is one of the creators of Pathways’ very successful “Seasons of Sabbats Kits” which guide people through the Wheel of the Year. Kits include a ritual written by Karen. As an integral part of the Pathways Facebook Community, she goes “live” several times a week, where we share a daily candle lighting ritual, tarot or oracle reading, and magickal tips and ideas.

Karen combines her Certification in Aromatherapy and Herbalism with her love of crafting and teaches several classes using her knowledge including soap-making and making magickal crafts. With her love of soap-making, she has turned a soap and bath bomb making hobby into a part-time business.

Also, within her magickally-ecclectic toolbox, Karen has assisted with Full Moon Ceremonies within her coven, offered spiritual guidance, used her gifts for psychic messages and tarot readings and performed house-cleansings and blessings.
