Welcome to UnFuck Your Brain. The only podcast that teaches you how to use psychology, feminism, and coaching to rewire your brain

and get what you want in life.

And now here's your host, Harvard Law School grad, Feminist Rockstar, and Master Coach, Kara Lowenthal. Hello my chickens, how are you all? I am cozy inside during what was supposed to be our first snowstorm,

but it's more like a sleet tantrum of some kind. It's not very impressive.

It's an interesting time of year for me because I see a lot of other coaches gearing up

for a last kind of month of the year push and I have totally

been there in the past the year I launched on fuck your brain I worked so much in December

but this year we hit our revenue and our client goals in early November.

And I think in the past I would have come up with a new goal to push myself for the last part of the year,

but this year I'm taking a different approach.

I think as you can probably tell by the last few episodes,

I'm doing a lot of looking and working kind of inwards right now.

Which is funny to say that because obviously thought work is

always about looking inward, right? Looking at our brains. But for the last few years I

think I was more doing that in a way that related to big picture external goals

and this season I feel like I'm really being called to more internal work I'm going

through a lot of personal development and growth and challenge right now and it's

exciting and fun and scary and uncomfortable all at once as it should be. but it's much more about what's inside and my interpersonal

relationships and less about kind of my external self and my achievements and my professional life and all of those things.

It feels right in line with

kind of the hibernation of winter weather on the East Coast

where it feels like it's light for like four hours a day.
