041: Living Past the Death Lines with Dr. Karen Tilstra
Manage episode 407448833 series 3560389
In this episode, Dr. Karen Tilstra joins me to discuss ‘The Death Lines’ and how it impacts the ways in which we show up as leaders of ourselves, our teams, and our businesses.
Karen Tilstra, co-founder and director of Florida Hospital's Innovation Lab, (FHIL), is passionate about helping people discover their own innate creativity.
She is an Educational Psychologist who holds a doctoral degree in Creativity, Innovation and Leadership. She has worked in both secondary and higher education in Asia and the United States. She believes she has learned more from students than they have learned from her.
Karen enjoys writing, spending time with family and friends, and watching a great movie. She is also known for her idiosyncratic pets, including the pet donkey who taught her that nothing is impossible and her stray dog who resembles a cross between an opossum, raccoon and weasel. She currently lives in Florida with her artist husband and three sons.
