Summary
Welcome to UnF*ck Your Brain! This podcast teaches you concrete, effective, mind-blowing tools that you can use to reduce anxiety, improve your productivity, dial-up your self-confidence, and dial down your insecurity and people-pleasing.
I’m Kara Loewentheil, a master certified life coach with degrees from Harvard and Yale – and a former high-powered career working for women’s rights. I’ve taken all the best neuroscience, evolutionary psychology, and coaching tools I know and combined them with feminist theory to create a set of powerful practices and life-changing ideas that will teach you how to liberate yourself from the inside out.
You can be the strong, empowered, confident woman you’ve always wanted to be – you just have to learn how to clear away all the negative self-talk and messages from the patriarchy that are keeping you small.
So let’s not sit here just talking about it – because I’m all about teaching you how to take smart action! You can start anywhere you like, every episode stands alone – just scroll and find a topic that calls you, and hit play. Join the feminist mindset revolution - your life will never be the same.

| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to Unfuck Your Brain. I'm Cara Lowenthal. I am a former social justice |
| 0:09.7 | lawyer and legal academic who changed her career by quitting the law and becoming a life |
| 0:17.2 | coach. As one does, I'm now a certified master life coach and I specialize in helping |
| 0:24.0 | women unfuck their brains. What I mean by that is that I teach you how to understand not |
| 0:30.6 | just what evolution has done to the human brain, not just what your family experiences might |
| 0:35.6 | have done to your brain, but also what living under a patriarchy does to your brain, which |
| 0:40.9 | just means living in a male dominated society that has historically been run by men and |
| 0:47.8 | that has historically concentrated power in men's hands. These days obviously our conditions |
| 0:55.4 | and our social conditions are improving, but that's the history that's the context of |
| 1:00.0 | most of society and especially Western society and American society, which is where I'm |
| 1:04.7 | located. Although I know that we have listeners from all over the world to find this work |

| 1:15.9 | As a former lawyer, I am very analytical and I don't believe in Wu-Tok or Vibes or anything |

| 1:30.4 | this podcast is I help you understand what's going on in your brain because so many of us |
| 1:35.6 | think that our brains are just specially broken or that the things that have happened to |
| 1:41.2 | us determine how happy and productive and fulfilled we can be in life. And neither of those |
| 1:47.4 | things are true for you, I promise. So if you listen to this podcast, you will learn how |
| 1:52.1 | to understand what's happening in your brain and you will learn how to fix it using very |
| 1:57.4 | concrete tools that I teach. I don't hold anything back, I have no secrets, this podcast |
| 2:03.5 | teaches you everything that I know. If you do want more help and more individual support, |
| 2:09.7 | I have a feminist coaching community called the clutch and you'll hear me talk about |
