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

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

Tara, Lowenthal.

Hello, my chickens.

How are you all?

It's been a little while since I recorded a podcast.

I'm excited to be talking to you again.

I have so much I want to teach you.

So I am awesome.

I just got back from a weekend at the beach with my whole family.

I actually enjoyed it.

And that is a thought work victory right there because not because there's anything

on my family, of course, it's all my thoughts.

Because five years ago, I would not have been able to say the same thing because I was so

hyper-sensitive and self-critical.

And so I was really critical of everyone else too.

And I had so many manuals for how everyone else should behave just so I could feel safe.

Which of course didn't work because constantly monitoring everyone else's behavior

to see if they're following your manual doesn't actually feel safe.

That's the irony.

That's a big change for me, but that's not news.
