How to Stop Giving a F*ck What Other People Think
In celebration of Independence Day, I'm discussing one of the ultimate forms of independence - breaking free from caring about what others think. As social creatures, humans have evolved to rely on relationships for survival, making us sensitive to others' opinions. However, this conditioning is often even deeper for women and can impact every aspect of their lives, including their careers, relationships, self-worth, parenting, and so much more. If you want to stop obsessing over what others think and start living unapologetically, where do you begin?
Join me as I dive into why women struggle with this issue and provide actionable steps to rewire your brain and liberate yourself from this mental burden.

Greatest Hits: How to Know What You Want
Understanding what you want is key to creating a life you won’t regret when you die. So why do so many women struggle to pinpoint exactly what that is? If you can relate, in this Greatest Hits episode, I break exactly down what it means to want something (and why women especially might struggle to identify that), how to know what YOU truly want, and how to decide whether it's worth pursuing.

This podcast is about the ugly truth no one wants to admit. I’ve been struggling about some issues until this podcast told me what it’s really about.
Love it
I’m so grateful to have found this podcast it’s an amazing self help series
Mind Blowing, for real
I consider myself an intelligent and well-rounded person. I've been successful in many things and am reasonably well-educated with a Master's Degree.
I stumbled upon this podcast, honestly not sure how, but I had been listening to a variety of things as I've gone through quite a difficult time in my life (end of a 10-year marriage being a large part) and was feeling very stuck and unhappy. Over a year of feeling between not great and really awful.
I listened to maybe 4 episodes, and Kara and her program resonated immediately more than any (many very good!) others I had listened to. I then went to the website, and signed up immediately. I've been a member about 3 weeks now and I have flipped a switch, with any credit that isn't mine going to Kara. It's so funny... now when I hear Kara say she wants listeners to blow their own minds, I know what she means! I've been keeping track of my specific 'learning' and have asterisks beside many of them with MIND BLOWING MOMENT. I've never, in my almost 50 years, heard this kind of information and although I kind of want to think negatively about that, like I've wasted so many years of my life suffering under a mismanaged mind...actually I can even think that and not get sunk into it! ... I am just super excited about where this will take me! This girl has got it right, and I found her, allelujia!!!
Best value of anything I've bought probably ever lol but certainly in the past year as I threw money at everything I thought would make me feel better.
