Who We Are
Developers
Empowerment Fitness® is the brainchild of three dynamic women who bring our good humor, personal triumphs and tribulations, and diverse professional experience to the development of this incredible program. Empowerment Fitness® was inspired by the transformative power of exercise in our own lives, helping us at every transition, to set goals and overcome obstacles. We've combined the power of exercise with the best practices from psychology, executive coaching, and legal advocacy to create this revolutionary mind-body program that can help you through any change you want to make in your life.
Dale Sokoloff, Psy.D. is a clinical psychologist. As a founding member of the Eating Disorders Program at Massachusetts General Hospital and a former faculty member of Harvard Medical School, she has over twenty years experience empowering women toward healthier body image, relationships, and self-esteem. Dale is an avid cyclist, who has used the power of her own two legs to visit many parts of the U.S., Canada, and Western Europe.
Sharon O'Connor, Ed.D. is a psychologist, management consultant, and executive coach, but to her friends and colleagues, she is known as a true possibility thinker. During her consulting career, Sharon specialized in facilitating large scale organizational change and diversity training for Fortune 500 companies, government agencies, and business start-ups. She is also the mother of 4 children, including a set of triplets. Sharon believes it is her regular routine of running that gives her the energy and enthusiasm to handle all she does. She is very proud to say she has completed 8 marathons.
Karen Hoffman is a practicing attorney who has spent the last 17 years advocating for individuals' rights in the areas of education, civil rights, and employment law. The focus of her work has been to empower those in our society who don't have a voice. As a former competitive athlete in high school and college, Karen has long understood the connection between physical fitness and self-esteem. She will tell you that she does her best thinking when she is walking, and is often seen walking through her hometown with her 14 year old daughter or a close friend.
We are also the founders of a professional coaching and consulting firm DKS Consulting Group. We have combined our extensive expertise in management, law, and psychology to offer the strongest coaching and consulting strategies available today.
