Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit."

My life's work is and has been spent in service to others. I'm happy when I know I have a positive effect on someone else's life. And I always find a way to add fun.

Karen K Bannister

Founder and CEO

I am a skilled administrative and management professional and certified as a life coach. I graduated Summa Cum Laude with my BS in Business Administration, Organizational Leadership, and have worked in the corporate world (both private and public), supporting executives and leading in the C-suite, for 30 years.

 

​After realizing I had already been planning, training, and coaching and helping countless executives and peers achieve their goals, I am making my operational, organizational, and administrative skills and knowledge to create uninterrupted flow available to you and your organization’s strategy.

And since you're not hiring a robot, here is a little more about me:

  • I'm an amazing dancer and former majorette.

  • I possess an intuitive, confident yet vulnerable, and open nature.

  • I'm direct, challenging, and honest - but also kind, supportive and encouraging. I'm engaged with and powered by energy received from the universe. 

  • First Fashion and Lifestyle Writer/Editor of the Orange County Business Journal

  • Author of Close the Gap: 7 Transformational Steps to Move You From Today to Tomorrow ​

  • Mom to a perfect, adult-age son (I may be biased, but it's true.)

  • I love animals and have two senior cats, Bobo and Baby.

  • I probably wear too much black, but I love it so much.

  • Not intimidated by fear and it doesn’t stop me from trying anything.

  • I seek and embrace vulnerability, change, and confrontation. They're all positive things in my life.
