KK's Candor

Hi.  Thanks for stopping by.  I’m KK and this is my blog.  My purpose is two-fold.  First, to give me a place to write and receive comments from others.  Secondly, I would like encourage others.  By encourage, I don’t mean to just flatter, I mean to encourage others to reach, grow and become better people.  Encouragement should have a dose of reality to it.  Sometimes encouragement is hard to take, because we aren’t in the mood.  We are stuck and want to stay stuck.  It is my belief that while we all have those seasons in our lives, they shouldn’t last long before we get up and keep moving.

I am a 40 something mother of Cole, a wonderful son;  and I was blessed to marry Jay on July 12, 2008.  He is a wonderful husband and step-father.  Feel free to comment — even if we don’t agree, I want to hear from you.  KK is a nickname my nephews and nieces gave me many years ago.  It was easy for them to say.  Most of them are grown now, but I am still their Aunt KK.

Really, my name is Karen.  I have a 20-year career in Communications, Marketing and Public Relations.  My degree is from Western Kentucky University.  While I worked for seven years in a for-profit industry, I have always had interests in the non-profit industry and understand it very well.  I love to put words on paper (or on a screen) to share a story, thought or inspiration.

Thank you for stopping by.  Oh, and before you go, click on the Subscribe via email link (in the right column) so you will get an email when I post.

All the best,
KK
