Summary

We live in a strange distorted time. A time of Instagram filters, airbrushing and plastic surgery. Remember that embarrassing incident in high school? Now imagine it had been Facebook Live'd. It's a whole new ball game for today's teenagers. They are under so much pressure to be flawless, to be popular, to be liked. Dr. Carla was an awkward teenager, she simply didn't fit in. She struggled with body image issues and low self-esteem. But she knew that she wanted to become an adult that young girls could talk to. Now, Dr. Carla is a transformational life coach for teenage girls, and an inspirational speaker. Her Teen Girl University is a girl empowerment program that teaches girls what they're not being taught at school: Self-love, mindfulness, healing the sisterhood wound; her program helps girls come together globally to connect with, encourage, and support each other. Dr. Carla also runs a business academy dedicated to teaching women how to create sustainable and profitable businesses through speaking and coaching. The biggest challenge she comes across with her business clients is one she also had to overcome: lack of confidence to charge for work. So how can you step out of a mindset that holds you back? Carla sought a mentor, and found Gabby Bernstein's Spirit Junkie community. She's gone through the Spirit Junkie Digital Masterclass, Level 2 and Mastermind, and it has been transformational. The training gave her permission to move into her heart and go into a place of intuitive knowledge; and it gave her the tools to create an abundance mindset. We're excited to announce that the Spirt Junkie Masterclass Digital cart is now open. If you feel the calling to do something different, to help people, to start your mission-driven business, the Spirit Junkie Masterclass Digital is for you.
