I\u2019m thrilled this week to share my conversation with host of the top-rated and much-downloaded self help podcast Unf*ck Your Brain, Kara Loewentheil. Kara is a Master Certified Coach with a B.A. from Yale and J.D. from Harvard Law, and she has been featured in outlets like Marie Claire, Mind Body Green, MSN.com, and The Huffington Post.&amp;nbsp; Kara and I talked a lot about perfectionism, thought work, and liberation from the inside out. If your brain could use a little bit of \u201cunf*cking\u201d right now, well, this is definitely the episode for you. Kara even shared a brief step-by-step process you can use right now if you\u2019re trying to neutralize your thoughts.  Write down the thoughts \u2014 no editing or analyzing! Pick 1 thought and come up with a neutral version of it. Example: transform the thought \u201cMy stomach is gross\u201d to the neutral thought \u201cA lot of people have a stomach like mine.\u201d Practice this thought! Repeat it, either aloud or in your head. Make it a habit by using a reminder app, making it a password, or even putting post-it notes around your house. Pay attention to how it feels different in your body over time.  \u201cWomen being able to think and feel how they want is what\u2019s going to create everything else we want on the outside. It\u2019s going to create women negotiating for better pay and family friendly leave, and loving their bodies, and enjoying fitness because it feels good. Whatever it is that we want on the outside, we have to do the inside work first. For me, this work is about freeing women to own their lives, but it has to start in our minds.\u201d Kara, thank you so much for coming onto the show and sharing your insights on thought work with all of us. And thank you to all of you out there listening and sharing the show! If you want to hear more from Kara, check out unfckyourbrain.com or follow her on Instagram. See you next week!
