This week Aleen is joined by Kara Lowentheil, Master Certified Confidence Coach and host of the UnF*ck Your Brain podcast, which helps women overcome self-critical thoughts that are undermining their confidence (and happiness). Kara is a former Women’s Rights Lawyer, who uses her law degree and cognitive-psychology based techniques to help women become stronger versions of themselves. The conversation kicks off with Kara sharing why she thinks many women are people pleasers (thanks society), what it actually means to unf*ck your brain and how to do it. We then dive into perfection: how women are on the hunt to find it, but why it's important for us to recognize that perfection is not reality and that “faking it till we make it” is not helping anyone. Get ready to have your eyes opened—Aleen has already started changing her daily thought processes after her convo with Kara.
