The Secret Muse Society
The Secret Muse Society is a podcast for the modern muse who knows she has so much more to offer the world. Hosted by Authenticity Coach, Karen Choi, we will pull out the things we keep hidden about ourselves. Let's explore the fears, attachments, beliefs, quirks, curiosities, dreams, and maybe even some taboos - that actually hold us back from the connection we crave. So we can inspire life as we're meant to. To get more visit www.karenchoi.co or join the conversation on Instagram at @karenchoi.co.
