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.

All right, my chickens, today we are talking to three of my incredible graduates of the

advanced certification of feminist coaching.

And we are talking about an issue that I think a lot of you will relate to, and even if

you don't relate to, it will be applied to some other relationship in your life.

We're talking a lot about kind of mothers and children and the thought work that goes

around difficult mother relationships.

And we're going to be most of the time about mothers on this episode, but this applies

to any parental relationship in your life.

Or even I think people develop quasi parental relationships with mentors, with teachers,

with other family members, even older siblings.

Like, you kind of had anybody who was in a sort of nurturing care, taking role with you

and you have a fraught relationship.

This is going to apply to you.

And if you have just like magically, perfectly delightful relationships with everyone

who ever took care of you, then number one, you're probably not a human.

And number two, if you are, then just listen so you can enjoy just thinking about how you

don't have this particular thought work challenge.

So I'm here with my students, Shade, Candice, and Karen.
