ABOUT ME
Welcome to a Journey of Joy and Self-Discovery
Hello, I'm Karen Pratten, a certified Happiness Facilitator dedicated to guiding you in unlocking your highest potential through intentional shifts in mindset and behaviour.
Passion for Joyful Living
My passion is to amplify happiness and joy in individuals as they pursue their dreams, overcome obstacles, and embrace their authentic selves. My journey as a coach and a Happy For No Reason Certified Trainer® began with a deep desire to support my youngest daughter, Josephine, and her friends as they pursued their dreams to dance professionally. Little did I know how profoundly the program would reshape the trajectory of my own life.
Decades of Educational Wisdom
With over 25 years of experience in Early Childhood Education, I've had the honour of immersing myself in some of the world's most innovative curriculums. My journey began as an educator and over the years, evolved into management and leadership roles, including Director and Coordinator of Services. Throughout this journey, I've not only accumulated extensive knowledge but actively engaged in shaping and tailoring curriculums to meet the individual and unique needs of each student.
It has been a dynamic exchange of learning - a continuous dance where I've played the roles of both teacher and student. Interacting with children, their families, and the incredible educators I've had the privilege to collaborate with, has been nothing short of inspiring.
From Educational Innovation to Joyful Facilitation
My transition into coaching and Happiness Facilitation is a natural extension of this wealth of knowledge and experience. Armed with an acute ability to recognise and identify the unique needs of my clients, I embark on a journey with them. Through interactive experiences and the art of storytelling, I facilitate a profoundly engaged learning experience. In this transformative process, individuals discover their own voices, nurture their confidence, and embrace the sheer joy that accompanies self-discovery.
This convergence of educational innovation and the pursuit of joy defines my philosophy—an ethos grounded in the belief that learning should be a voyage of self-discovery, empowerment, and boundless joy.
Dancing into Happiness
As a coach and Happiness Facilitator, my joy extends globally, particularly focusing on dancers committed to achieving excellence. Today, I share the principles and practices of Happy For No Reason® with diverse audiences—dancers, students, educators, individuals, and corporations—all seeking increased happiness and a richer life experience.
Join me on this journey of joy and self-discovery, where happiness knows no bounds.
I’d love to help you rekindle your passion or find your new path. Work with me and discover how to dance with life.
