It has been a great place for me to learn from an amazing group of people with so much experience on work life balance, mindfulness, staying positive and motivating yourself! I am 26 and have applied almost all principles Karen presents in my life and have already started seeing change. I think I have grown tremendously. I have moved from a toxic work life to a brand new fulfilling job and Future Proof Forum has played a big role during this transition! Karen Forum should be joined by everyone who wants to add value to their life!! 
A. Reynolds -

A new way of viewing the world and my place in it! The weekly forum discussions are very, very informative. I’m 60 so as I get older it’s good to hear this information so I can adapt it and apply it to what is going on with me and Covid-19. I mean, it’s given me new thoughts like, “Oh, let me rethink this! And, “Oh let me go in another direction!” I didn’t think that way before. I am happy to be here.
J Boyd -

Week after week, I look forward to attending Future Proof, and listening to the women across the US, like me, struggling to find ‘Purpose’ and trying to maintain 'Homeostasis,' during this time of Chaos---but with an inter-connectedness---even with all of the molecules shifting around the world. Your strategies to ‘Pivot, Reinvent and Transform’ our lives during COVID are gifts that keep on giving.
Carin Upstill -

I am so grateful to be back in Karen Sands’ presence.  I have known her for many years and am delighted to be once again gaining insight from her knowledge.  I have temporarily lost myself and Karen is helping me re-align to once again become my authentic self.  I love her voice.  It has such a calming affect on me and singing Ohm with her and other participants set a wonderful course for my day.

What did I learn? EVERYTHING! Karen put some of my own thoughts into words—sometimes we know something but can’t express it. I have greatness—and I’ll never forget it! I’m inspired to share Karen’s message to have women tap into their greatness. Karen, you've got everyone yearning for more! When asked what they wanted to see at future conferences, participants said, Great message! More like this! This one again. More of this—part II Continue this conversation More of THIS!!

Paul Irving - Chairman of the Milken Institute Center for the Future of Aging, Distinguished Scholar in Residence at the University of Southern California Davis School of Gerontology

In all of her work, and especially now in The Ageless Way, she tells us how to focus on our Functional Age and become a healthy and happy centenarian!
Helen Harkness, Ph.D. - Career Design Associates Inc., author of The Career Chase, Don’t Stop the Career Clock and Capitalizing on Career Chaos

Using a lively combination of stories, analysis, and provocative questioning, Karen persuasively shows how life and work after 40 may be the most satisfying years of our lives
Amy Zalman - Ph.D., CEO World Future Society

Inspirational, Informative and compelling- A must read! - I am grateful to Karen Sands for her inspirational and informative book Visionaries Have Wrinkles. I couldn't put it down- in fact I turned my Kindle onto audio to listen in the car. I felt that I was in the room with Karen, enjoying her presence and the conversation with the wise women she interviewed. I appreciated the various points of view about relationships, spirituality, sexuality, making money and giving back in the late stages of life. This book gave me a renewed sense of purpose and wholeness and an expanded vision of the choices I can make in my life.
Linda Hogan -

Let's Hear it For the Crones! - In Visionaries Have Wrinkles, Karen Sands interviews thirteen remarkable women you will be delighted to meet. She asks exactly the right questions as she engages in dialogue with each woman, so this reads more like a series of intimate conversations where you are a fly on the wall than a book of interviews. In effect, Karen, as she weaves the conversations together and adds her own commentary at the end, becomes a fourteenth interview. Some of these Visionaries were new to me; some familiar. I learned something from each conversation that helped me reflect on my own post-sixty-five path. I gained wisdom, courage, and a renewed sense of purpose. I know that you will too.
Susan R. Meyer -

A must read - Visionaries Have Wrinkles is a must a read for everyone male or female. The women are extraordinary and Karen is a master interviewer. Reading VHW has brought me to understand the aging process better and what to look out for now and later. VHW will bring you laughter and tears...and introduce you to new possibilities for post 50.
Ace -

Thank you Karen for creating so much awareness of value for my life through this book! ...and all the nuggets of wisdom that nurture the soul and spirit. Fascinating interviews -- inspiring book - I just received this book in the mail and read it from cover to cover - I couldn't put it down. The interviews are so varied, so rich in content, and offer a personal glimpse at some influential women in a variety of fields. Karen Sands' Epilogue pulled it all together for me -- profoundly inspiring!
Lucy R. -

Karen interviews remarkable women in this book... Remarkable? Yes. Different than you and I? Not necessarily. What they share in these stories touched my soul, gave me permission to allow my uniqueness and inner beauty to blossom through the dreams I wish to realize at this new stage in my life. 55 is only the beginning of my middle years... So many possibilities and so much time ahead! So much opportunity!
Anon -

Heartfelt thank you for empowering and healing through your stories - Visionaries Have Wrinkles: Conversations With Wise Women Who Are Reshaping the Future. This is a must read. For women who want to heal, live their truth, gain comfort in who they are, or just curios how others do it as we age. Today there are so many words of wisdom, how-to's and advice being shared that it can become overwhelming and empty. Karen brought light and life to women's stories of how they chose to stay engaged in life, have grown, contribute, align their dreams with what they create in life and community, and continue to make remarkable impact as they age. Turning 55 or 65 or 80 holds a paradigm today, not of retirement, tucked away in the country, but of entering new eras of wisdom sharing, respect for ourselves, continuous learning and contribution to society that is seeking our wisdom and knowledge.
Sandy Weiner - ICF Coach

A must read for women and their families - Inspiring stories behind the women that have shaped our lives and helped build the foundation of our future. Couldn't put the book down!
Tyari -

Delighted and excited about this book! - I am excited and delighted to recommend this book. These women are amazing and I loved hearing their stories and learning about their outlook on aging gracefully. Every story was compelling and each woman taught me some valuable lessons, often speaking to my own personal issues. I appreciated the "reflections" component of each chapter, as I enjoyed the opportunity to consider my own aging journey. My thanks to Karen Sands for sharing her passion with all of us.
Sharona Silverman - MPH, Director, Deutsch Family Shalom Center, Temple Chai

Refreshing and Empowering read about visionary women - Visionaries Have Wrinkles is an uplifting and empowering book. If you've ever wondered what your impact on the world will be as you age, just read about these outstanding women and their remarkable achievements. As a healthcare professional with over a decade of experience with the senior population I found it refreshing to read about elders being revered and honored while finding meaning and purpose beyond the "traditional" retirement age. Karen Sands' interviews with these remarkable women show how she herself is a visionary, seeing the true potential and importance of breaking the traditional roles of women and the 50+ generation.
Monika Westerdal - Alzheimer's Specialist

Visionaries Have Wrinkles Has Something for Everyone -Wow! Few books have me hooked from the very first sentence of the intro., but this one did! Have you ever tried to wish away a wrinkle, only to realize that, in fact, you cherish the lifetime of experience that wrinkle represents? And that your future could be better because of it? Visionaries have Wrinkles is priceless: you have a ball reading it, and you KNOW you'll be referring back to it again and again. Far better than a fountain of youth, it is a no-topic-untouched exploration of women's potential roles as visionaries for the future--theirs and society's. Sex, love, career, health, social justice, companionship, environment, money, exercise, psychology, clothing, literature, style, politics: it's all covered in the insightful interviews. This new model gives me great hope for who I can be over 50. It also shows me what I could have aimed for at 30 and 40. The women interviewed are phenomenal and timeless. Yet, you get the reassuring sense that you, too, can have a future just as full as theirs. I'd recommend that women over 50 grab this book and read it cover to cover. Men should read it too, but frankly I'm not sure I want to share the author's rich insights!
Jane Purcell - Adult Literacy Educator

Imagine your living room is filled with some of the most provocative visionaries of our time, sharing their insights and inspirations with you. You need not imagine any longer.

This book-like the women in it- will endure over the years.
Lisa Smartt - Director , The Final Words Project

Visionaries Have Wrinkles is captivating. As Karen has personally inspired me over the years, she now shares the inspiring words of other visionaries, women who articulate so much of what I have been trying to put into words and to embody. The interview format is like listening in on a conversation full of moments that resonated with my soul, made me laugh, and at times took my breath away.

Elsie Maio – Founder of Humanity, Inc./The SoulBranding Institute -

As the founder of the Shoreline Area Senior Network, I invited Karen Sands, leading GeroFuturist™, to present at our monthly meetings to a group of professionals that service the senior population.  Karen arrived ready to give it her all.  She interacted with the members for approximately 30 minutes before beginning her presentation.  She was able to intertwine stories obtained from the professionals right into her own talk.  She facilitated a valuable interactive session, and our members were delighted!  I was so very impressed with Karen’s skill as a keynoter that I plan to invite her back for a follow-up presentation.

Thank you again for the fantastic talk. You really raise some good points and concepts to ponder.
Julie Benedetto - Former Customer Programs Director, New Morning Natural & Organic

I was so impressed with Karen’s presentation that I had one of our writers interview her about executive coaching for our publication Best Practices in Human Resources.

Elaine Quayle - Executive Editor, Business and Legal Reports, Inc.

You were phenomenal last week at the ICF meeting...You were able to facilitate one of the most interactive and valuable sessions I’ve enjoyed.

LC - PCC & CIC

Susan Elias - Education & Membership, New York Society of Association Executives

I found Karen to be thorough and informative while at the same time capturing and keeping the attention of all of us through her very personal and upbeat style. What particularly impressed me was her ability to provide the content of the workshop that was presented in the marketing materials while also customizing it to meet the individual demands of the workshop participants. Karen delivered information that was thought-provoking and caused me to continue to think after it ended. I highly recommend Karen's work. You will not be disappointed.

Marnee Weber - ICF-AZ VP Programming

To be successful in a corporate or entrepreneurial environment you not only have to know the "product" you sell, you have to know how to mine the resources of your staff...bring out the best in your personnel... help them know how good they can be. Working with Karen Sands has helped me fine tune my sensitivities to a world that business school neglected to address.
Nick Lopardo - Former CEO, State Street Global Advisors

Karen helped me to see myself as I truly am. A gifted, insightful, intuitive and very wise masterful coach, she has helped me design and install a wisdom chip that helps me be conscious about why I’m making decisions so I can align with what I want vs. going with what others expect. My professional leadership and communication skills have also been greatly enhanced by our work together. Karen doesn’t sugar coat the truth and she doesn’t let me off the hook, yet she makes me laugh! And she does this all by phone—without the benefit of visual cues! I think of Karen as “wisdom on call.”
Jonna Kurucz - Staff Vice President, Health and Wellness, Anthem
