Karen Lea Cline

Karen is a graduate of the medical field of nursing. The life and death experiences and working in many different medical departments would change her path. A new direction would change things as she entered a Chicago Pageant and as a consequence of this pursued Modeling. She is a firm believer in competition and has a great appreciation for the growth that occurs as a result of this unique experience. The competition and the title of Mrs. Illinois, America, gave her opportunities to speak and raise financial support and awareness for charitable organizations. As she pursued modeling and acting, Karen enjoyed learning photography and pursued her desire for a retail business called “Lea Image Studio.” A passion to help woman to look and feel their best through image consulting, make-up, skin care and pageant preparations. All about image! A survivor of aggressive thyroid cancer and then breast cancer with all the progressive treatments caused a real challenge. With a grounded positive outlook renewed faith and direction her focus was to believe in the thought process and saying, “One thing at a time, one day at a time.” Her love of helping others at a difficult time was renewed when she experienced training as a Care Minister, caring, guiding and helping others at a difficult time in their lives. An entrepreneurial spirit guided her to develop and design ”If I croak® the things you should know, Life Organizational Planner.” Her personal conviction is “live every day to the fullest, make the most of each moment, each hour, each day, of your lives.”
