Welcome to Style Your Mind, a podcast for women who want to design their thoughts, empower themselves, and build a beautiful life.

I'm your host, Kara Al-Waleba, best-selling author and master life coach.

I am obsessed with women on the edge of change, and I've worked with hundreds of those women all around the world to help them unlock the best

version of themselves and fulfill their potential.

If you're ready to style your minds and transform your life, then you're in the right place.

Let's do this.

Hey ladies and welcome back to style your mind. So I moved a couple weeks ago, as you guys know,

and it's been really difficult for me to get back into my work routine since moving. And at first,
