Welcome to Style Your Minds, the podcast for women who are ready to choose themselves, burn the rulebook, and blaze their own trail in life and in business.

For women who know they are meant for more, and have waited far too long for someone to give them the permission they thought they needed.

I'm your host, Cara Allwell, bestselling author and mentor to women entrepreneurs.

If you're ready to change the world, be inspired, and meet other incredible women on the same mission, you're in the right place. Let's do this.

Hey guys, welcome back to the show. I am so excited for today's conversation and today's guest.

So a couple of weeks back, I spoke on a panel, a relationship panel at the Dream Lab conference, and there was a woman that spoke on the panel with me named Karina F. Daves.

And the minute that I heard this woman speak, I was like, I need to know her, and I need to share her with you here on the podcast.

So she actually opened up the entire conference with a prayer, and when I tell you, she created such an energy in that room.

There were a couple hundred women in the room. She said this prayer, she walked up and down the aisles of the conference, and I looked around, I turned around, and everybody was like, interiors.

Like, full body chills, just the way that she commands a room, the things that she says, the light that she brings, she's phenomenal.

And after she answered her first question on the panel, I turned to her, and I was like, you're coming on my podcast. She's like, definitely.

So I'm bringing her here today. We're going to talk all about how to take your pain and your challenges in life, and turn them around, and help them shape you into the woman that you want to be.

We're focusing a lot on relationships in this conversation. She is hilarious. She actually did a real couple of weeks ago, and I was like, we have to talk about this on the show, and we do in this episode.

She's like, I almost broke up with my husband because he was too boring, and it's like, died.

Because I think a lot of us can sort of mistake drama and intensity for true love, and she's going to break all of that down in this episode, and talk about what it looks like to cultivate a healthy relationship.

How finding love is just the beginning, right? That's where the work actually really begins. We think that it's finding a partner that we click with and we bond with, but it's really then nurturing the relationship, growing with someone, learning someone, encouraging somebody.

She's going to talk about how her husband decided he wanted to become a race car driver, and she had to support that dream and what that did for their marriage.

So I know you are going to be just as in love with her as I am without further ado, here is my conversation with life coach and speaker, Karina F. Daves.

All right, guys, welcome back to the show. I am so excited for today's guest, Karina Daves. I gave a little introduction earlier so you know how we met, and she is just such a bright light, such a great energy, and I'm so excited to have her on the show.

So since meeting her, I've become addicted to her little reels on Instagram and all of her words of wisdom. So Karina, I'm so excited to share you with everyone today.

Can you just kind of like introduce yourself to the audience?

Yes, I'm so excited to be here with you, Cara. So my name is Karina F. Daves. I'm a life coach and the podcast host of one day at a time, and I love helping women get their freaking lives back. That's what I do.
