Karen Knudsen: “Thinking Boldly and Believing in Yourself” with Mally Roncal and QVC

Karen Knudsen shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Thank you to Mally Roncal and QVC for hosting me on Over 50 and Fabulous recently to promote the Q50 campaign.

I am a member of the Q50 and was so excited to be on the show.

Mally and I talked about “Thinking Boldly and Believing in Yourself” which, as you all know, is a topic I’m passionate about as a woman in leadership.

Thinking boldly, having no limits, and having courage to do things you may not have been confident enough to do in your 20s are some of the things I’m grateful for at this stage of my life.

We also got to talk quite a bit about my work at the American Cancer Society and about cancer prevention and early detection, things women (and people) of all ages should always be mindful of.

Each of us has a role to play in cancer screening – speak to your doctor, know your personal risks due to your family history, and get appropriate screening. It’s also important to share this early detection message with your friends and family by saying “I love you, get screened.”

Another Over 50 and Fabulous airs this Friday at 8 pm ET on QVC followed by the 10 pm ET after show livestream on QVC.com and QVC’s Over 50 and Fabulous Facebook group”
