Karen Johnson: Living with Grief

Anyone who is navigating grief often feels like there is no end to the pain. Life as they know it is over and there doesn’t feel like there is a way out. Karen Johnson’s professional career as a federal judge came to an abrupt halt when she lost her 27-year-old son to a heroin overdose. Rather than grieve in a way that made people around her comfortable, she did the unexpected. She quit her lifetime appointment career, sold her house with all her belongings, and traveled the world, finding a healing practice along the way. Karen shares her journey of transformation. Karen is a graduate of Georgetown Law Center, a former Fulbright Scholar in Afghanistan, and holds Masters Degrees in Public Health and Public and International Affairs. She is a retired federal administrative law judge who practiced criminal and energy law for more than 30 years. She also is a former US Army officer, Major, USAR. Karen is the author of the book, Living Grieving: Using Energy Medicine to Alchemize Grief and Loss.
