Dr. Karen Demmery
The woman who broke the rules, burned the blueprint, and built a legacy from the fire.
It's Time You Outgrow Survival Mode & Dream Again
This Isn't Your Average Welcome
This is not a safe space. This is a power space. For The Woman Who Is:
Done Playing Nice.
Done Explaining.
Done being everything for everyone but herself.
You didn’t come here to be inspired, you came here to be ignited.
I’m not here to help you “find” yourself, I’m here to remind you that you were never lost. You were just conditioned to shrink.
If you’re ready to make your pain pay you.
If you’re ready to heal on your own damn terms.
If you’re ready to build a business, a voice, a life that screams
I AM THE ONE!
Then welcome, Sis. Let’s change the whole game.

Drops That Slap You Awake
WHO IS DR. KAREN DEMMERY
Let Me Be Real With You!
I’m not a coach. I’m not some Insta guru selling you affirmations in a soft voice with a ring light on. And I’m not here to hold your wounds like glass, because you’re not fragile. You’re powerful, you’ve just been lied to for too long.
I’m Dr. Karen Demmery, A drovers daughter, a drovers grand daughter, a drovers great grand daughter. A proud Wiradjuri and Barkindji woman, trauma survivor, ex-addict, truth teller, cycle breaker, and straight-up system shaker.
I grew up being told to be quiet. Be good. Don’t make waves. But life? It cracked me open. Drugs, alcohol, shame, silence, trying to be who everyone else needed me to be, it nearly took me out.
I know what rock bottom tastes like. And I know what it takes to rise from it.
But I didn’t just rise. I built a business, a movement, and a damn legacy from the ashes.
Now I train thousands, I speak truth in rooms that weren’t built for women like me, and I help women all over the country break out of survival mode and into power.
I’ve created spaces where women can remember who they are, reclaim their voice, and walk like they were always meant to lead, not beg to belong. And I do it all with fire in my belly and culture in my bones.
This isn’t about healing so you can feel "better." This is about healing so you can lead, dominate, and build a life that feels like yours, fully and unapologetically.
I don’t work with women who want fluff. I work with women who are ready to burn the rulebook and write their own. Women who are ready to get loud, get paid, and get free.
So, if you’re looking for someone to play nice and keep you comfortable, I’m not her.
But if you’re ready to rise, ready to shake things up, ready to lead from a place of truth, fire, and full-blown sovereignty? Then let’s go.
This is the real work. The raw work. The life-changing work. This is how we break chains, for good.
WHAT I DO & WHO I DO IT FOR
I Don’t Work With Women Who Want Surface-Level.
I work with women who’ve been cracked open by life, and instead of breaking, they built. Women who’ve crawled out of the fire with ashes on their skin and a vision in their heart.
They're not here to be liked!
There not here to be rescued!
They're here to run shit!
These women have outgrown spaces that ask them to shrink.
They’ve tasted survival, and now they’re hungry for sovereignty. For leadership. For power that doesn’t apologise.They're not here to be liked.
They want depth, not drama.
Realness, not rehearsed lines.
Rituals that feel like reclamation.
And frameworks that don’t insult their intelligence.
THESE ARE THE WOMEN I WORK WITH
The Leaders Who Are Done Leading Quietly
You’ve got wisdom running through your blood, but you’ve been playing safe, holding back, making others comfortable while dimming your own brilliance. Not anymore. You’re ready to lead from truth, from culture, from power. You’re not here to fit into the system, you’re here to rebuild it. Louder. Sharper. Rooted. Unapologetically you.
The Side-Hustlers Ready to Go Full-Time Savage
You’re tired of working two lives. You know your side hustle isn’t just a hobby, it’s a movement in the making. You’re ready to go all in. Build the business. Make the money. Change the story. Not just for you, but for the next generation of women who’ll never have to shrink the way you did. You’re done negotiating with your dream.
The Caseworkers, Coaches, and Support Workers Who Want Real Trauma Tools
You’re tired of working two lives. You know your side hustle isn’t just a hobby, it’s a movement in the making. You’re ready to go all in. Build the business. Make the money. Change the story. Not just for you, but for the next generation of women who’ll never have to shrink the way you did. You’re done negotiating with your dream.
The Corporate Queens and Cultural Warriors
You’ve spent years trying to navigate systems that weren’t made for you. Code-switching. Shrinking. Smiling through disrespect. You’ve collected degrees, titles, achievements, and you’re still not given your due. That ends here. You’re not here to beg for space anymore, you’re here to take it. You’re the ancestor someone prayed for. You’re ready to lead like it.
This Isn’t About “Fixing” You. You Were Never Broken.
This is about remembering who you are. What you carry.
What you came here to do.
So if you’re done with pretending... Done with shrinking... Done with living below your power... And you're ready to rise, fully, loudly, rooted in your story and ready for your next level… Then you’re mine.
Let’s go. No fluff. No fakery.
Just fire, culture, strategy, and the real work that actually transforms you.
