In this episode, guest host Celeste Huecias sits down with Karen Kokowicz, CCAM, President and Owner of Coro Community Management & Consulting, to explore the heartfelt journey behind the creation of Happy Minds Network, a peer-to-peer support group built by and for CID managers.

With nearly 30 years in the industry, Karen shares how personal loss, professional insight and a desire for connection inspired her to build a space where community managers can find encouragement, empathy and collaboration. Her career has spanned portfolio management, on-site leadership, company ownership and service in key industry roles, including as co-chair of CACM’s LA Regional Committee. Today, she’s channeling that experience into creating a more supportive and sustainable future for CID professionals.

Whether you’re a manager seeking support, a leader looking to foster wellness on your team or simply curious about the power of peer connection, this episode is a must-listen.
