Hey, sweet soul! I’m Kara (like Sarah with a K), your Play Alchemist ✨

I’m here to help you break free from the constant pressure to do everything perfectly and finally feel light, free, and alive again.

I know how heavy it can feel to carry the weight of perfectionism and self-doubt—especially when you’re a sensitive soul with big dreams and a heart that feels everything so deeply.

That’s why I use the✨ magic of play ✨ to help you reconnect with and heal your inner child—not in a way that feels overwhelming or exhausting, but in a way that feels joyful, freeing, and oh-so you.

Think of me as your guide back to yourself—the version of you that’s bold, creative, and doesn’t need to hustle for your worth. Together, we’ll create a life that’s not just beautiful on the outside but nourishing on the inside too.

My Story

Five years ago, I was deep in the trenches of perfectionism, juggling overthinking, self-doubt, and a crippling belief that my worth was tied to my achievements. I thought success meant hustling until I burned out, plastering on a smile to keep up appearances, and chasing standards so impossible they’d make a gymnast wince.

Then life said, “Let’s shake things up, shall we?”

Within months, everything unraveled. I lost my job. My apartment became Ground Zero for a cockroach apocalypse. A beautiful relationship ended. Childhood trauma bubbled up, and my epilepsy flared in ways I could no longer ignore. It felt like life hit a giant reset button, leaving me with nothing to hold onto.

But even in the middle of that chaos, I heard a whisper—a nudge from deep within: This isn’t your story. Rewrite it.

So I did.

I started rebuilding, one tiny, soul-aligned step at a time. Somewhere between the chaos and the cocooning, I reconnected with a part of me I hadn’t seen in years—my inner child. That playful, wildly creative part of me that had been buried under years of “shoulds” and perfectionism.

It was through returning to my inner child that I stumbled onto something magical—play. Not just fun-for-the-sake-of-fun play, but the kind that cracks you open, makes you laugh through your tears, and reminds you of who you were before the world told you who to be.

Play didn’t just save me—it transformed me. And that transformation became the heart and soul of The Playful Warrior.

What I Do

I'm all about helping ambitious, sensitive souls like you ditch overthinking, heal old wounds, and reconnect with the joy, creativity, and confidence that are already inside you—even if they’re currently buried under 50 layers of “shoulds.”

My approach is rooted in the belief that play is the most powerful way to heal. It’s not just a break from reality—it’s a bridge to the best version of yourself. And when you lean into it, magic happens.

Your relationships feel lighter—not because you’re striving to be the perfect friend or partner, but because you’re showing up as your true self. Your creativity flows—not tied to a specific outcome, but as a joyful expression of who you are. And your business thrives—not because you’re working harder, but because you’re embracing play, leading with confidence, and trusting the process instead of forcing the outcome.

Whether you’re navigating a tough transition, battling self-doubt, or just craving more fun, I’ll show you how to infuse play into every corner of your life.

Through my variety of programs, courses, and PLAYShops, we’ll create space for you to rediscover the joy, freedom, and ease you’ve been craving—and help you build a life that feels as good as it looks.
