Meet Karen

Karen Sue-A-Quan is a mother of three beautiful children and wife to her trusted confidante.

Her background as a pediatric ICU pharmacist has deepened her appreciation for the miracle of the human body, fostered compassion through the soulful stories shared, and sparked reflection on life’s bigger existential questions.

During her time in the pediatric ICU, Karen developed a particular interest in pain and sedation management. She also volunteered as a ‘Peer Support’ member, offering a unique service dedicated to healing the healers. Through her focus on pain management, Karen came to realize that much of human suffering cannot be treated by pharmaceuticals alone, but requires the further development of the soul, often overshadowed by the ego.

Karen is an avid learner, having pursued numerous courses beyond traditional pharmacy school and conventional healing systems, while integrating all aspects of what it truly means to heal.

Now, Karen mentors individuals and groups seeking soul health, both virtually and in person. She believes that continuous soul development is at the core of true healing. Karen now works privately and collaboratively on projects and services dedicated to the health and well-being of the sacred soul.

My Journey

Over the Years

^
My Family Story

I was born to immigrant parents who, at ages 18 and 22, took a leap of faith to move to another country to study and create a better life for their future family.

Through hard work, discipline, and relationship-building, my father funded his way to eventually earn a PhD from Harvard University. My mother, an economics major, raised my sister and I while managing the family finances, allowing my father to retire early.

My parents demonstrated hard work, disciplined habits, and the importance of relationships with family and friends.

As a family, we were harmonious and accomplished.

On the outside, everything appeared harmonious, but we often suppressed our difficult emotions to maintain that peace.

My Educational Story

Like many high school students, I was unsure about my future. At graduation, I excelled in math and science but truly enjoyed art, reading biographies and mythologies, and helping people.

Without a clear direction, I enrolled and was accepted into pharmacy school.

My Career Story

My pharmacy career exposed me to various retail and pharmaceutical settings within the healthcare system. While each experience was valuable, I felt a growing misalignment with my deeper sense of purpose.

It wasn’t until I became a pediatric ICU clinical pharmacist in a renowned hospital that I discovered one of my callings.

Working with critically ill patients revealed many heartfelt stories that touched my soul.

The multidisciplinary team dedicated their lives to caring for the sickest children in the country, and their compassion, kindness, respect, and intelligence were unmatched.

The patients, whom I call “little souls,” were among my greatest teachers. Their bravery, courage, and resilience inspired me throughout my 25 years in the ICU.

My Science to Soul Story

One day, as I walked along the ICU corridor back to my office, I was struck by a thought: If we all eventually face death, am I truly living my life the way I want? Is this all there is to it?

At that time, I was busy caring for sick patients in the pediatric ICU while raising my three beautiful children with my husband at home. There wasn’t much space nor time for these thoughts.

Yet, I felt a persistent pull to explore…

I began life coaching at the Coach Training Institute (CTI), where my entire world was reflected upon, and I began having revelations and feelings I never knew existed within me.

I continued exploring health beyond pharmaceutics, enrolling in whole health, mindfulness, meditation, chakra healing, yoga, hypnosis, and reiki, further expanding my understanding of holistic well-being.

I read numerous personal development books and listened to podcasts that broadened my mind beyond what I had learned in traditional school.

I attended various retreats to receive the wisdom and workshops of different facilitators.

I hired a personal life coach to refine my inner awareness and growing desire to share and serve others in this way.

My soul was constantly developing, and decades later, when I asked myself the same question—What are you going to do with your life?—I finally had a clear answer.

Discovering Spirituality

My sister-in-law introduced me to a vast and detailed text called The Urantia Book.

It aims to answer existential questions. It blends elements of science, philosophy, religion and spirituality to offer a vision of a universe governed by love, where each individual has a unique and meaningful spiritual journey. Unlike organized religion, it encourages a personal journey, free from institutional structures or dogma, offering reflection and inspiration.

From this awe-inspiring text came spiritually channeled messages that became new teachers, with the signature of spirit.

We are all of divinity nature having human experiences, evolving our souls towards their truest essence, guided by beings of light and love.
