Summary

You’ve hit the milestones: the degree, the dream job, the relationship that looks right on paper. But no matter how much you achieve, that deep sense of confidence still feels out of reach. That isn’t because you’re missing something; it’s because we’ve all been taught to think about confidence the wrong way.

Tune in this week to discover what The Confidence Compass is and how it brings together everything I’ve learned over a decade of teaching women how to live boldly and feel grounded in who they are. This framework will help you finally build a confident life, one where you stop chasing approval and start feeling fully alive.

All right, y'all, today is big.

This episode is the first in a whole new direction for my work because I have spent the last six months working on the best coaching framework I have ever created.

0:11.3

I've taken all the work I've done over the past decades since I got certified and I've distilled it into a new tool that is simple but profound and that can solve any problem you have. And today I'm going to share it with you on the podcast for a new tool that is simple but profound and that can solve any problem you have. And today,

I'm going to share it with you on the podcast for free. So let's get into it.

Welcome to unfuck your brain. I'm your host Kara Lowenthal, master certified coach and founder

of the School of New Feminist Thub. I'm here to help you turn down your

anxiety, turn up your confidence, and create a life on your own terms, one that you're truly excited

1:17.4

But I had kind of moved away from talking about confidence because it felt a little bit overdone

1:22.7

or overplayed or just like a word that so many people were using.
