Karen Baring, business coach & mentor
Helping women entrepreneurs build thriving businesses while enjoying their lives.

BusiWomen is all about you
Behind every thriving business is a woman who learned that community, systems and strategy carry you when life doesn’t go to plan.
Karen is a serial entrepreneur with an intense curiosity about how our brains work. She founded BusiWomen to give women business owners the room she wished she’d had: supportive, practical and genuinely fun.
“It’s not just about the hustle.”
A room for women in business
BusiWomen started as a simple idea: bring women entrepreneurs together to network, learn and grow. It has been doing exactly that for 18 years.
An unexpected turn
Karen’s husband was diagnosed with an incurable liver disease. His health declined, he stopped working and he later received a full liver transplant, while their children were 6 and 8.
Stepping back without a decline
Because her business ran on organized systems and clear strategy, Karen could step away for her family. Her business grew 47% between September 2017 and March 2018.
800+ mastermind sessions
Over 12 years, Karen has run more than 800 mastermind sessions, facilitated training and helped hundreds of women take their businesses to levels they never thought possible.
Three ideas behind everything we do
Systems create freedom
Organization, strategy and systems make a business resilient, so you can step back when life needs you.
Community beats isolation
Community and mentorship reduce the loneliness of entrepreneurship and speed up your progress.
Balance is a business skill
You can build a thriving business and still enjoy your life. Success is more than the hustle.
