“Kindness, compassion and soul heal the places that medicine cannot.”

— SHARI KARNEY

“Everyone that is part of the healthcare experience needs to feel valued, even those healthcare professionals who do not have direct patient contact. When each person in the patient’s healthcare universe is caring, compassionate and kind, the patients experience is amazing—healing and inspirational. The healthcare professionals, workers and team need to be honored and supported. We nourish the healthcare workers and professionals and they nurture the patients. I show you how to “pay it forward”. Care, compassion and kindness heal where medicine leaves off. My focus is to nourish and support the healthcare team, improve and inspire resiliency. The goal is to help healthcare professionals deal with burnout, greater demands made on fewer people, and to spark renewed passion for a lifetime dedicated to healthcare. Giving to healthcare professionals means improving the patient experience.

I am a cancer survivor whose life has been inextricably altered while undeniably blessed by the healthcare providers and professionals that saved my life. I understand that the compassion, kindness and love that I received from healthcare professionals were an integral part of my recovery.
It’s personal for me. My life was saved not once, but twice! It’s about honoring and giving back to those that loved without reservation, cared without condition, and healed without restraint. I understand the issue, both from the perspective of the patient and from the perspective of the healthcare professional.

I speak to a broad range of groups including physicians, fellows, nurses and nurse practitioners, scientist, researchers, medical foundations, leadership teams, technologists, IT professionals, and more.”

An extraordinary story of triumph after sexual assault
As the Founder of the socially conscious empowerment nonprofit, ROAR as ONE, Shari Karney reveals her mission to promote positive, empowering messages for girls and women. Through her experience as a TV personality, attorney and legal pundit she understands first hand, the unique pressures facing girls and women today. Shari intimately shares her personal life story of triumph after sexual assault. She delves into current challenges facing college women on campuses across America today.

Shari is passionate about her dream and vision for a new world where women are respected, honored, and empowered. Where women join together to ROAR as ONE, (Rise, Organize, Act against Rape, Sexual Assault, Sexual Harassment, Sexual Disrespect) to create a civil rights movement that protects women and children from sexual assault, sexual violence, sexual misconduct and disrespect. Where there are consistent consequences for sexually violating a woman whether that woman be a young college student, young entrepreneur, intimate other, employee, intern, family member or friend. Her battle cry (S.H.E.) to unite women, ignite a revolution and to reconstruct a community of strong women supporting one another to create civil rights for survivors is riveting, authentic, heartwarming, passion-inducing and nothing short of infectious. Her motto will quickly become your own, “Speak. Heal. Empower—Together We Can”

#Me Too.

While there is endless media attention about the problem of campus sexual assault, sexual harassment, sexual disrespect, child sexual abuse, violence, few people are discussing tangible solutions. In this amazing and life changing presentation, Shari Karney starts what becomes an ongoing dialogue, asking young women the simple question, “What kind of woman do you want to be?” Shari goes much deeper than simply making audiences aware of the issues. Through tangible action, grassroots civil rights movement and community collaboration, Shari shares how to be verbal, visible and victorious.

She repressed all memory of these challenging events, until she was an attorney, during her first trial defending a three-year old child who had been molested by her father. Shari’s life began to unravel during cross-examination of the defendant. After serving two nights in jail for attempting to strangle the father-perpetrator on the witness stand, Shari was forced to come to terms with her own dark past.
Yet through it all, Shari never gave up. Rather than hiding from her past, she is using her traumatic circumstances to inspire and help others heal and find hope in facing difficult life challenges.
Shari captures the heart of employees and managers with humor, energy and interactive exercises with the audience to help move the workplace to a place of compassionate action where change happens. She believes that if she can touch the heart of her audience, it will create lasting positive change both personal and professional. Everyone can relate to some part of Shari’s story, whether it is her personal struggle, professional accomplishments, or her efforts to change the laws to protect our most cherished citizens—our children.
