Aloha beautiful Boo! I had to decide whether to post on What's New or here because of time.......so I decided to do this because it's so interesting.

1. WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

I am inspired by people who take risks and succeed in spite of there being the possibility of failure, problems or pain. I guess that means I'm inspired by everyone who gets WLS and fights their way to success, in whatever form that takes for them.


2. HAVE YOU EVER MET SOMEONE YOU LOOK UP TO? IF SO WHO?


My neighbor and friend is my "mentor" since moving to Maui. She is 83 years old, still teaches hula, has a bright/quick mind that includes humor and very modern thinking, and lives life to the fullest in spite of having pain from arthritis, etc. We often have spirited discussions about heavy subjects and I always listen carefully to her "take" on things because she usually has something thought provoking to say.


3. WHAT TYPE OF WORK DO YOU DO?

Well, my first job was a legal secretary right out of high school. Then I went to college LATE (for 7 years and 3 years interning) and became a clinical psychologist which is what I did for many years in Santa Cruz, Ca. I retired from psychology when I moved to Maui, but can't seem to sit still, so got my real estate license (never used it), then began to accumulate part-time jobs that were interesting instead. Now I test the hearing on newborns at the hospital, manage a condo, and soon will be teaching a class in "Overcoming emotional eating."



4. DO YOU LIVE IN A HOUSE , CONDO, TOWN HOUSE , APT.?


Most of your know I live in a condo on the ocean......I talk about it so much you can probably almost picture it totally. I moved to Maui from Portland, Oregon and a 4 bedroom, 3 bath house into a one bedroom, one bath condo!! Major downsizing which has been a wonderful experience. My home may be small, but my backyard is the Pacific Ocean and that makes it feel like I live outdoors.

This is fun and so wonderful to hear about each of your lives.

Aloha nui loa,

Maui Karen
