Hi, I'm Keren!

I used to be a strung-out overachiever, constantly chasing the next big goal, the next win, and the next external validation. It left me feeling drained, disconnected, and unfulfilled. But today, I’m truly happy—and living a life I genuinely love.

This journey wasn’t easy, but it was worth it. And that’s why I wrote GILDED—for anyone else who’s ready to break free from the endless pursuit and start living a life they ACTUALLY want.

Following this transformation, I had the privilege of coaching some of the world’s top achievers: Olympic athletes, politicians, Hollywood stars, supermodels, Special Forces operatives, and renowned entrepreneurs, and to help them do the same thing I did. I’ve also worked with amazing organizations like Estée Lauder, J.P. Morgan, and Nike. I’m like the fairy godmother of corporate tycoons. 

I wrote this book for those of us who have ever felt stuck in that ‘gilded cage’—for those who’ve experienced the restlessness of always striving, yet never quite arriving at true happiness. Because if you’re anything like me, you know that while you may have 'everything,' the feeling of genuine contentment can still seem just out of reach.

GILDED is here to change that. This isn’t just another book about success; it’s a guide to redefining what success means on your own terms. It’s for those who live intensely, chase ambition fiercely, and sometimes find themselves at odds with time, relationships, and even money. If you’ve felt that you’re either having too much or too little, spending unwisely, or simply not knowing how to savor it all—this book is for you.

And yes, I’m still a speaker, coach, and lifelong learner. I live in Austin, Texas, with my wonderful husband, Ryan, and a house full of pets. Welcome to this journey. Let’s break free together.
