About Kari

Kari Tumminia is an author, speaker, and content creator passionate about empowering people to design better lives through intentional, authentic relationships.

She started her journey as a small agency designer in Philadelphia before pursuing her passion for people with a graduate degree in Community Development from Eastern University.

Her professional path has been anything but conventional, but afforded her a multitude of rich experiences that helped her grow into her purpose: writing and crafting compelling resources to help people master authenticity, communication, and boundaries… resulting in not just better relationships, but better lives. 

In addition to pursuing a doctoral degree in psychology, she has spent the last 10 years building a successful coaching practice specializing in relationships, attachment, and codependency recovery. Kari has written for Energy Psychology Press, Eastern University and Buildabridge International, the Brave Thinking Institute, and others. 

Above all else, she believes that fulfilling, healthy relationships are possible for everyone. She is passionate about helping people address the roots of their struggles, embrace their true selves, and achieve sustainable change. She loves developing resources and programs to lead people through the personal healing processes they need.

Her first book, No Bad Dates: The dating advice you actually need, was published in 2020. Her second book, The B Word, is scheduled to be released in 2023.
