About

Karen Sammer - NBC-HWC, is a National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach and Certified Nutritional Consultant who also holds a certification in Whole Food Plant Based Nutrition. She is an international best-selling contributing author to the book Her Badass Story. 

She is a breast cancer survivor and a spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) heart attack survivor. 

In 2010, after recovering from breast cancer and the effects of chemo and radiation, Karen resolved to take control of her health. 

In the process of making significant nutrition and lifestyle changes and losing 135 pounds, she found her passion in learning about health and nutrition.

In 2017, she experienced another major health event when she experienced a SCAD followed by a heart attack, which made her double down on her self care. 

She was trained at the Mayo Clinic to be a WomenHeart Champion Community Educator and goes wherever there is an audience to talk about heart disease in women, what to look for, what to do if you have it, and how to prevent it.  

Karen works with people who are living with or are at risk for developing chronic illness that can be managed through nutrition and lifestyle changes to prevent, reduce and sometimes even reverse such conditions.
