Kara McCarthy Perry

For 22 years, I was a corporate lawyer focused on health care law. When the pandemic hit and there was a forced pause in my busy life, I found Lifebook®, a personal design system that allowed me to think deeply about my life. This process helped me envision my future with more clarity and examine what my heart desired for so many years, but my mind was too afraid to entertain. In September 2020, I released my in-house counsel position with much gratitude and transformed my mind, body, and soul through yoga teacher training (YTT). It was a profound experience for which I am forever grateful. I am also a certified Laughter Yoga Leader, which is a unique practice that uses laughter exercises and yoga breathing to provide health benefits and tap into the joy that lives within each of us. I am a Certified Lifebook® Leader and guide others on their transformational personal design journey. Motivated by my YTT and Lifebook’s approach to living consciously, I found the Integrative Law movement and became certified as a Conscious Contracts® Practitioner inspired by other courageous lawyers who have been working toward a paradigm shift in the law focused on value-based, creative solutions that strengthen relationships and are not based on fear. In this new chapter of my life, I’m focused on my passion for health and wellness and how that can be used to help others live their lives more consciously and compassionately, and laugh more!
