Strengthening the Humans Behind the Work
Because stress doesn’t just impact performance—it shapes how people think, lead, and connect. Our programs and trainings blend neuroscience and somatic practice to help teams build emotional resilience, improve communication, and create cultures where people feel safe, engaged, and capable of sustainable success.

When Stress Leads, Performance Declines
Even the most capable teams struggle when stress becomes the driver. Under pressure, clarity drops, communication stalls, and decisions become reactive instead of strategic. Over time, this drains focus, productivity, and profit. Studies show that workplace stress costs U.S. companies over $300 billion annually through absenteeism, turnover, and reduced performance.
At Karen Ann Wellness, we help organizations turn those costs into measurable gains. By addressing stress at its root—the nervous system—we train leaders and teams to self-regulate under pressure, recover faster from challenges, and communicate with presence. The results are tangible: stronger collaboration, higher engagement, and up to 40% improvement in team performance and retention based on post-program data.
This isn’t just about wellness—it’s about ROI. Regulated people make better decisions, create healthier cultures, and sustain performance that actually lasts.

As Seen In
The Hidden Cost of Dysregulation
Â
The effects of stress don’t stop with one employee—they spread through teams, cultures, and bottom lines. When leaders and teams operate in survival mode, retention drops, innovation slows, and trust erodes. Research shows that replacing a single experienced employee can cost up to 200% of their annual salary, and disengaged employees are linked to a 23% decrease in profitability.
Teams sense when stability is lost. Collaboration gives way to self-protection, creativity fades, and energy once spent on growth shifts toward conflict and control. Quick fixes—like one-off workshops or surface-level wellness perks—may offer temporary relief but rarely create lasting change.
Over time, organizations pay the price in lost momentum, diminished credibility, and a culture that can’t sustain the very success it worked so hard to build.
