About this episode

Tired of the relentless pressure to constantly "better" yourself? In this episode of Financial Feminist, host Tori Dunlap sits down with Master Certified Life Coach Kara Loewentheil to dismantle the toxic narrative of self-hate that's often ingrained in the self-development industry, especially for women. They delve into how societal expectations, particularly for women, fuel a cycle of self-criticism and never-ending striving for external validation.

This conversation will challenge you to rethink your approach to personal growth and goals, offering a fresh perspective on how to achieve success without sacrificing self-love. Kara shares her own transformative journey and provides actionable insights on how to rewire your brain for self-acceptance, create your own validation, and break free from the emotional vending machine trap. Tune in to discover how to fuel your personal development with self-compassion, not self-loathing.
