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

and coaching to rewire your brain and get what you want in life.

And now here's your host, Harvard Law School grad, feminist rock star, and master coach,

Carla Lohanthile.

So my chickens, here's what I want to talk to you about today.

I want to talk to you about what happens when you just cannot figure out what the fuck

is going on with yourself.

This is an experience that I am having right now, and normally I really try to have worked

through things and process them and kind of extracted the learning and thought about

how it would apply to everybody before I teach it.

But because what I want to teach right now is all about not having closure on something,

I actually think it's really valuable to talk to you about what I'm experiencing right

now.

And so this episode is basically me talking about what I'm experiencing with my own brain

right now in a way that is not resolved.

Now who knows, I might resolve it, it might make sense in three hours, unpredictably,

by the time the podcast comes out, or it may never make sense to me.

And that's okay too.

So the first thing to understand is that as you get deeper and deeper into thought work,

and as you start to try to really access what's going on in beyond the sort of first level

stuff, you learn about that work, your mind's totally unmanaged, you find thought work,

and you sort of are like, holy shit, I could just change all these unhelpful thoughts.
