I can speak for Kara in that she had some family issues out of state that she needed to take care of. I still speak with her regularly (we are on our way to the Playtime Halloween party!)and am hoping that she may someday come back into the business.  Sometimes girls need a break from this business, it can wear a person out, especially a popular one such as Kara.  I always want what is best for my girls and sometimes taking a break is the best thing.  When and if they do come back, they are refreshed and ready to shine again!

My opinion is that we all move on in some way or another in life. People change and are not the same way they once were. So  now generally speaking one provider moves on to better business opportunity, then the other falls in love, maybe the next goes to preach the gospel, who knows. In the end there’s the personal reason to leave and personal reason why and you may never know the real story unless the provider gives you that info themselves.
Now I don’t  know the ladies mentioned above personally but assume that if they didn’t come to the board to explain themselves then why go searching for it. Although  there’s several different posts here on the TER were people mention the why’s and where’s of  retired providers any other information is heresay. Now Correct me if I am wrong but Kara from TLC publicly announced a goodbye on the boards when she decided to move on.   Hopefully providers are remembered for all the breathtaking perma-grins and for the memories of a “one in a lifetime” GFE, not the 411 on our personal life. So no I  do not think there’s a common reason, just simply moving on…
