Friday confession:
I miss my daughter.

She’s off at college, out there living her best life… while I’m at home doing very normal, very sane things like:

• pausing mid-sentence because I 𝘴𝘸𝘦𝘢𝘳 I heard her laugh in the hallway
• scrolling through old photos like I’m an unpaid archivist for The Museum of Our Family
• buying her favorite snacks “just in case she stops by” (she lives 300 miles away, but sure, Viveca)
  
They say absence makes the heart grow fonder.
And yes. Absolutely.

But can we also acknowledge it makes the brain grow…slightly unhinged? (Just me?!)
Because the missing is weirdly specific.

I don’t just miss “my daughter.”
I miss:

• the random drive-by commentary from the other room (“That’s a choice.”)
• the kitchen pop-ins that start with “I’m starving” and end with me losing half my lunch
• the way she can roast me with one sentence and somehow still be adorable doing it
• the noise. The mess. The 𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦.
  
Now the house is calmer. Peaceful. Mature.
And honestly…suspicious.

Like…why is it so quiet? Who approved this? Where’s the background sass?

Here’s the part no one tells you:
Missing your kid isn’t only sad.

It’s also kind of hilarious - because you start realizing how much of the joy was in the tiny, ordinary stuff you didn’t think you’d miss.

So yes - my heart is fonder.
But my fridge is also fuller (for no reason).
And my phone storage is at 2% because apparently I’ve decided to become the CEO of “Rewatching My Own Parenting Highlights.”

Your turn:
👉 What’s one oddly specific thing you miss when someone you love isn’t around?

And, happy Friday! 🤩

Former lawyer leveraging LinkedIn™ for lawyers to gain quality referral relations and connect with qualified clients efficiently ~ (when I’m not ocean swimming).

Thursday night. Good food. Loud restaurant. One friend I hadn’t seen in over a year.
 
You know the kind of dinner where the first 10 minutes are catch-up logistics…
And then suddenly the real question lands.
 
“So,” she said, leaning in,  “what are you actually focused on now, in 2026?”
 
Not 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮.  Not 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘰𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘳.  Not the tidy version.
 
𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙡 𝙤𝙣𝙚.
 
I laughed, because yes, like most humans with a calendar and a pulse, I’ve done a little navel-gazing lately. Looking back. Looking ahead. Trying to name the thing beneath the thing.
 
And here’s what surprised me:
 
The answer wasn’t LinkedIn.
 
LinkedIn is the channel. The vehicle. 🚗 The microphone. 🎤
 
What I actually do is quieter - and bigger.
 
I help people make sense of their story. 
➛ Your unique message. 
➛ Your positioning. 
➛ Your authority.
 
The 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦 version finally matching the 𝘰𝘧𝘧𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦 version everyone already trusts, refers, and wants in the room.
 
My sweet spot?  Digging into what sets you apart when you’ve been too close to see it.
 
The career twists. The lived experience. The judgment calls you’ve made a hundred times that others still struggle with. The thing you assume is “obvious” because it’s 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴.
 
I’ve spent a decade building tools, asking better questions, and having thousands of conversations to surface that.  Then position it - clearly, honestly, and without the cringe.
 
So I told her, simply:
 
“I discover, resurface, and position who you are, what you do, and why you do it.”
 
Because when people have choices - and they always do - they choose professionals they trust and connect with. And, I hope, make them laugh (or at least smile) - another content pillar of mine! 
 
And here’s the part I didn’t expect to say out loud, but felt true as soon as I did:
 
This year, I want more real life. 
More rooms. 
More stages, of any size. 
More conversations that don’t start with a profile view.
 
Still strategy. Still clarity. Still visibility.
 
Just with more eye contact.
 
If you know of places, teams, events, or conversations where this kind of work belongs 
- in person - I’d genuinely love to hear about them. 
 
And I’m curious for you, too:
 
When someone asks what you 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 do…𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩’𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙬𝙚𝙧 𝙗𝙚𝙣𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙝 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙟𝙤𝙗 𝙩𝙞𝙩𝙡𝙚?

Suite Solutions by Karen

I started my career working on the business side of IT. I left to raise my kids and once they were fully launched I decided to restart my career. I launched my first company helping women navigate the business of Divorce.

I learned a lot about what it takes to start a business, and what it takes to create and run a business that will be viable in the long run. I also learned that if you don’t love what you’re doing, it would never work.

Quarantine provided the space I needed to get clearer on my vision and today I use all my experience and education to help other entrepreneurs avoid the challenges and mistakes I made. What I really like and do well is “the business of the business.” Strategy, finances, marketing, operations etc

My combination of skills and education give me a unique perspective on small business. I can talk to the techies and translate to the C-suite. With my coaching experience, I learned to ask the right questions to help make sense of what’s in my client’s head. I translate that knowledge into systems and processes so that business owners can feel confident that their business runs when they’re not around.

My greatest learning? That I want to work with people who love what they do and inspire me – my success is your success!

🔥 "Ever thought menopause is like puberty for grown-ups? Welcome to the 'adulting' phase of hormones where hot flashes meet hot topics in sexuality!" 🔥

Hey there, midlife maven! Let's face it—midlife can be a whirlwind of hormones, late-night Google searches, and questioning whether "sudden superpowers" is a fair trade-off for hot flashes. If you've ever swapped out '50 Shades of Grey' for 8 hours of sleep, or considered putting your head in the refrigerator for a few sweatless minutes—darling, you've just found your haven. 🌹

As the Certified Menopause Coach and Educator behind the provocative and oh-so-relevant "Taboo to Truth Podcast," I'm your go-to guide for the bumpy yet liberating terrain of midlife sexuality and menopause. I'm here to spill the tea, or should I say, cool your hot flashes, on:
  
🌺 Your Body, Reimagined: Rediscovering the beauty and power of your sexuality in a body that's writing its next beautiful chapter.

🌺 Menopause at the Workplace (and everywhere else): Figuring out why you've been speaking in the boardroom with sweat pouring down your face and you're holding it in so tight because you can barely wait to use the restroom

🌺 The Questions You Wish You Could Ask: You've got queries you're almost too embarrassed to Google? Let's turn that whisper into a confident conversation!

My mission? To let you know you're far from alone in this journey. It's time to transform taboos into empowering truths, because let's be honest—midlife is too short for unsaid words and unexplored desires.

Ready to laugh, cry, and find your new normal in this extraordinary chapter of life? I can't wait to connect with you! 

💌 Reach out for a no-holds-barred chat at Karen@TabootoTruth.com 
🌟 Subject: Tell me the truth!

Cheers to embracing the glorious mess and magic that is midlife sexuality and menopause. You've got this, and I've got you! ✨
