For Karin Janin, the mantra “I achieve, I can!” has been her magic carpet ride. It transported her from fear and profound loneliness as a German orphan, to becoming a naturalized American citizen by age 10. After her beloved adopted father’s shocking death, “I achieve, I can!” blanketed her teenage angst throughout the long months during which a pet horse became her best friend and confidante. Following a failed romance due to religious dogma and judgmental relatives; too heartbroken to stay in college, and then, alone in a hospital; Karin even faced the sudden threat of her own death. Then, as happiness played hide-and-seek throughout her next decade, by Karin’s early 30s the mantra “I achieve, I can!” now soothed the psychic wounds of rape, abortion and divorce. A struggling single mother of three, Karin yearned to reconnect with her two orphaned brothers, both living in Europe. She literally dreamed of one day finding her birth mother so that they, together, could release the past. Eventually she did all these things, and more!
Thinking, feeling, knowing, affirming the words “I achieve, I can!” is how she somehow managed to raise all three little sunbeams into college graduates who now have families of their own. Their success inspired Karin to return to school at age 40 to earn her bachelors degree in psychology. And then, at her daughter’s wedding, Karin faced her former husband for the first time in 20 years, opening her heart to a blessed reunion by forgiving decades-old resentments. Karin Janin hopes you don’t think her life has been a sad story. “You know,” she laughs, “there’s always a new psychic mountain to climb, and we succeed through the graceful magic of intention: making a confident beginning, pacing our energies to go the distance, trusting that time can and will heal all injuries, and being willing to make a U-turn if we realize that our approach isn’t right.” Clearly, Karin’s life has been all about transformation, faith, and embracing change with open arms. Five years ago she left Texas to marry a New Yorker that she met on an airplane! Forever newlyweds, they also double as doting grandparents. Having developed vast desktop publishing skills by abiding with an uninspiring job, while she “continually held a vision and believed in the magical intention to one day transcend,” to this day Karin keeps manifesting miracle upon miracle! If all this sounds like the trappings of a life coach, fast-forward to summer, 2006. “Inspired by the intuitive brilliance of (AIHT adjunct faculty member) Sonia Choquette, Ph.D. after rediscovering The Psychic Pathway and then Sonia’s True Balance series,” Karin rekindled an old dream by enrolling in dual-graduate programs in metaphysics, adding that she “is delighted to be creating a whole new networking community in spirituality.” This fall, Coach Karin proudly recruited an herbalist and neighbor named Kris Lizzul into our Parapsychic Sciences program. “The capacity to heal others evolves naturally within those who are ready to disassociate…from their identity as victims. In fact, the simple decision to put aside the pain we have carried is what grants us the strength to redeem that pain through service.” The Daily Om © Karin’s first book, Magic of Intention, came together within six short months, a phenomenal manifestation of “deciding to act ‘as if’ throughout the creation process. I’d take my laptop into one of the big bookstores, settle in and write or edit for hours. The energies were exhilarating as I envisioned, daily, mastering each detail of the upcoming book signings and public readings. When strangers asked about my project I’d say, ‘I’m an Intention Coach—you know, as in I achieve, I can!’ and as we talked I asked them to please tell their friends and coworkers about my upcoming book, Magic of Intention.” With the holidays approaching, Karin’s inspiring Web site is a treasure chest of uplifting books, affirmations, a healing prayer circle, and her own handmade beaded jewelry designs: www.karinjanin.com
