Caren formed a strong identity around her smoking habit over many years. After a sudden change occurred in her life, she realized it was time to move on. Although the transition was uncomfortable and required commitment, Caren found her way to a new identity and continues to evolve. Many new adventures and opportunities opened up for her once she made the firm decision to quit smoking once and for all.About Caren:Caren works with Gen X women who are wildly capable and deeply accomplished, yet still second-guess themselves more than they’ll ever admit. She helps women unscrew from imposter syndrome, people-pleasing, and the survival patterns that taught them to stay quiet, agreeable, and “easy” to work with—by changing their identity at the root, not just their mindset. Her work blends neuroscience, somatic embodiment, and trauma-informed practices so confidence stops being something you perform and starts being who you are. This process isn’t about becoming someone new.  It’s about coming home to who you were before the world told you who to be.✨Find Caren at:https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1GqMoLgF9ahttps://www.facebook.com/caren.s.cooperhttps://www.instagram.com/carencooper_https://www.linkedin.com/in/carencooper 💜Ready for Your Own Breakthrough?My personal coaching uses a heart-led framework designed to help you navigate these shifts and find lasting freedom from smoking. I currently have some open spots for one-on-one coaching.  Apply Now: https://www.honoryourheart.net/application
