- My amazing guest this week is Kara Loewentheil, a feminist lawyer-turned-life coach who is here to tell us how a sexist society gets in our heads and how to get it out with her new book, Take Back Your Brain.
We talk about everything from the messages we absorb from society at a young age and how it shapes our thoughts to how we can slowly change those thoughts to something slightly less crappy.
If you're a high-achieving woman who feels like you need to do it all and be everything to everyone, this episode is for you, because as Kara says, you can't hate yourself into liking yourself!

Tell me below: what were your takeaways from Kara? How do you think your thoughts have been shaped by society? How can you think a slightly less crappier thought than what you're currently thinking? ❤
Thank you for an interesting conversation!
Your book sounds amazing Kara Loewentheil. 💝
It serves as an important tool to help women who know that this conversation is happening but are somehow.. used to perceiving this
as the usual of society and normal.
~ Is never too late for creating a better mindset~ 🤗
I would love to read it, thank you both! 🌸
❤️❤️
Ohhhh I loooove Kara! I’ve attended a few of her online talks before! So happy to see two of my favorite people talking together! ❤
🔥🔥🔥
Epic conversation! So inspiring! Thank you Terri and Kara!
So glad you enjoyed it ❤
Hi Terry. My name is Linda I'm from Ireland. I just subscribed to your channel a few days ago. I'm so glad that I did. I just love your videos. You are an amazing lady. Thank you ❤
Thank you so much Linda, I'm so glad to have you here 💕
What a gorgeous, intelligent guest! Thoroughly enjoyed listening to this and will be purchasing a copy of both of your books.
Thanks so much to you both and have a lovely weekend all ☺️🌈
Seriously! I hope you enjoy the reads ❤
Thank you for giving tactical methods to change my self talk. Today's boys aren't given a secure message either. In school, my young son is being told he is bad for being a boy. All people need to know they matter.
Yes, they do!
I here what she saying about religious talk and it used to keep people in a box shamefully for working and giving themselves the life they do deserve. I have a toxic group I want nothing to do with always meddling talking about Im focusing to much on the things I plan to buy which is blessing myself with my own income and Im homeless right now. Crazy as it is your never asking on desiring to much neither expecting to much when you know your going to be the onlg one who blesses you with the things you neex in life adding things into your home, saving for vacations and ect. Toxic people want you to settle for less than what you deserve. To never bless yourselves. Being around these type of people life will past you by and you die and you have nothing to show and have gone nowhere bc people who dont even pay your bills get comfortable with wanting you at a loss, and having nothing for yourself. To tell the true live under a poor coat and will all your hard cash to them that is the best thing you can do for toxic people. Or stay in one place anx allow them to schedule tasks for your daily life as if your a child who's private goals in life is now a privilege if they call the shots. But go nowhere and be happy leave yourselves behind.
"Toxic people want you to settle for less than what you deserve" mic drop! Thank you for sharing your experience 💕
