Want to reclaim your self-worth and challenge societal norms? Then, get ready for a fantastic episode because we’ve got Kara Loewentheil, the powerhouse behind the School of New Feminist Thought, on this week’s podcast! Kara’s new book, 'Take Back Your Brain,' just dropped, and I can’t wait to share our conversation with you.

In this episode, Kara and I dive into romantic socialization's history and social impacts. We bust myths about love, marriage, and self-worth and discuss the difference between empowerment and true personal power. We urge you to root your self-worth in yourself instead of seeking external validation.

Kara’s insights are a game-changer. She offers a roadmap for embracing self-compassion, challenging patriarchal norms, and building mindsets that lead to a more fulfilling life.

Don’t miss out on this powerful conversation! Tune in now and start taking back your brain! 

We get into:

  • The brain gap: what it is and how to overcome it. 
  • Why the goal is to be grounded in your self-worth and not your relationship status
  • The four traps of romantic socialization
  • Body positivity vs body neutrality 
  • The beauty and power in the phrase “How human of me…”
