About Karen

Hi there! I'm Karen Stultz, and I'm living proof it's never too late to create an awesome life. 

I live in beautiful Midcoast Maine, happily married for over 50 years, with two incredible children and four amazing grandchildren who bring me endless joy.

My path to becoming a coach wasn't a straight line. I've worn many hats – from Financial Director in government and a career in banking, to a brief foray into politics. 

But it was during the five years I spent caring for my parents at home that everything shifted. This period, while challenging, became a profound turning point, leading me to discover my true calling.

I didn’t exactly plan to become a coach — it was more like life tapped me on the shoulder… then gently shoved me forward. What began as simple curiosity and lifeline turned into certifications across nearly every coaching lane you can imagine. 
And here’s the part that still makes me smile: I used to be highly skeptical of anything that sounded “woo.” Energy? Essential Oils? Metaphysics? I wanted evidence, science, and something I could understand. Very Pragmatic. 
 Then life happened, and along with an "Inner Knowing" I didn't have to make it as hard as I was making it...

I discovered what I now call Heart Energy Techniques™ (HET). This unique blend of tools gently clears old emotional blocks, releases trauma, and restores calm, clarity, and confidence. For over two decades, since 2001, I've had the privilege of guiding Soul-Aligned leaders and coaches in retreats, workshops, groups, and one on one. My passion is helping them rise from burnout, worry, and stress into a life of confidence and calm, from the Inside Out.

Beyond my coaching world, you'll often find me enjoying live concerts, reading "cozy mysteries",volunteering with local nonprofits, or traveling across the U.S. and Europe. And, of course, nothing beats sharing stories and laughs over a glass of wine or ice cream with dear friends and family
