Summary

Do you define yourself by what you have or haven’t achieved in the past? If you’re in debt, do you think of yourself as someone who’s bad with money? If you’re perpetually single, do you think you aren’t capable of love? Most of us judge ourselves because we want to change - but doing so actually PREVENTS us from changing. If you want to change your life, you have to start by changing your beliefs about yourself.

Welcome to Unfuck Your Brain. The only podcast that teaches you how to use psychology, feminism

0:13.8

and coaching to rewire your brain and get what you want in life. And now here's your

0:19.3

host, Harvard Law School grad, feminist rock star and master coach, Carla Lohan-Thyle.

0:31.8

Hello my chickens, how are we all doing? It is gray and rainy. It has been raining for

0:39.0

like a week straight, which I just feel like is more than it should be a lot to rain.

0:42.2

Apparently I'm not in charge of these things. But I am feeling energized anyway. I just got

LeBron, just great. And I thought before we dive into today's topic, I would take a minute

0:59.2

and just kind of update you all on how that work is going. So when I hire Trudy, I really

1:05.6

wanted to work on doing an audit of my business and making sure that it was kind of inclusive

1:12.0

in its operations, not just in its teaching and its values. Right? So I have been teaching

1:17.5

for a while about internalized oppression, not just sexism, but also racism, sizeism,

1:24.5

like an intersectional social justice approach to thought work in general. That's what I do.

1:39.0

deeper work to do in creating content and tools for my students to work on these issues.

1:44.7

So that's not to say that we had like that all figured out, right? But we were already

1:49.3

working on it. It was ongoing. It was already a big area of focus. But I wanted to kind of

1:55.1

get a sense of how we were doing in terms of DEI priorities along kind of other facets

2:02.4

of the business and how we could make it more inclusive in ways that made sense for our

2:07.2

business structure, our values, our mission, right? The praxis, the practice. That's not
