Life-Changing
I’ve done a lot of therapy and coaching, yet Kara always surprises me with nuggets of things I didn’t know before. Or that I didn’t see due to my socialization as a woman.

Once was great but now it’s just a marketing tool
This used to be a very helpful podcast, but now it’s just marketing for her new business and asking people to sign up for something or buy a book. I understand that she needs to monetize the podcast, but I wish there was a variety of ways for those of us who don’t want to purchase the whole program.

Book
I see how your book will be about self help books but I would like to see these same chapters in your podcast. As well as having your book in huge sales places like barnes and noble, amazon, etc/ which might 🤫 ,increase sales.

Not helpful-aggressive selling
I never learn anything. It’s basically “do you identify with xyz, want to learn how to improve? (Yes, that’s why I’m listening) “well I’m not going to help you here you need to but my course and I’m going to read all the reviews for the remainder of the episode!!”

Makes it simple.
And it kinda is when you think about it. I’m a spiritual person. I think. I like to look for my meanings and messages. This podcast isn’t it. What this is, is what the other part of my brain needs to hear. The simple breakdown of, I allow myself (or not) to feel what I feel, think what I think, and everyone else also has that right also. I don’t.. but I love this podcast in my rotation because it’s what brings it all to the here and now for me… no past, present, future, alternative timelines. Rather my thoughts, my actions right now.

Great podcast
Recently found this podcast and am enjoying it! Episode 312 with guests Dr. Adrienne Mann and Dr. Tyra Fainstad about their peer-reviewed research study was fantastic! Finally! Someone has proven scientifically that coaching actually works to dramatically improve self compassion, burnout, anxiety, among so many other things. So much helpful information in this episode!

Upselling all the time
Her good episodes are quite spotty. Most of the time she’s obsessively and forcefully trying to sell her course.

Most helpful resource I’ve found in years
This podcast has helped me so much. I’m autistic and have always struggled with understanding people and situations, which causes a huge amount of anxiety. Listening to Kara I’ve learned so many tricks for managing my thoughts and have really reduced how much time I was fixating on how I might be perceived. It’s done wonders for my ability to grow professionally.

Amazing with a capital “A”
I wish I would have found this podcast years ago because it would have saved me so much time worrying about what other people think about me at work and in everyday life. In the first few episodes, Kara does an amazing job explaining how to change the way you perceive things by changing the way you think which in turn, changes the way you feel. So simple yet such an amazing insight into how to get out of your head and out of your own way! Thank you Kara 🙌. You really have become an important part of my daily routine, cheers 🥂

Pass
The topics are very wide. I wouldn’t recommend because I find more value in people who specialize in specific areas vs broad range advice. Example, some of these, like relationships, should maybe be more valuable from a therapist, not a lawyer. The same speaks on family and raises and photo confidence. It’s okay advice, but I find it takes 5 minutes into the episodes for the actual topic to even begin. By the end of half an hour, only two tips are given.

Life-changing
This podcast has positively impacted me so much. I think about these teachings on a daily basis. I am grateful for the ways in which it’s encouraged me to show up more fully in my life, both for myself and for the change I want to see in the world. Thank you!

Giant sales pitch
Too woke / extremely far left. The podcast is essentially just a sales pitch for her programs, which basically just teach you how to gaslight yourself.

Such great advice
As a mother, the Parent Blame Boomerang episode was so insightful. We never truly realize how many good and toxic traits have been passed down through generations. I have my own experiences that have changed who I am and how I parent, but after listening I will definitely think harder about how what I do and say can affect my daughter.

Social justice as a grift
Let’s call this what it is: privatizing social justice awareness for personal gain and calling it a revolution. Also, Kara’s association with the Life Coach School and Stacey Boehman are deeply troubling. Check Reddit if you want to learn more about why.

All the black girls are activists
I’ve been listening for years and I think I’ve left a review before but I’d like to say thank you for the episode with EbonyJanice. I haven’t read her book, but as a black woman I appreciate you giving her the platform here. A lot of it resonated with me. Thanks!

Amazing!
Love this podcast! Kara gets in my head like no one else can. Love her podcast! So inspiring and motivating!

Good Info
Good stuff, but the host often talks over the guests and goes into her own promotional material.

My favorite podcast
I found this podcast almost two years ago now and it has improved so many areas of my life. Kara knows her stuff and has all kinds of guests on the show to go more in depth into all kinds of things women specifically go through in life. Highly recommend to ALL women!

Exactly what I needed
I just happen to find this podcast when searching for a particular topic on criticizing others. I will say the content was spot on and was exactly what I needed to hear. Moreover, the delivery and depth of knowledge in research helped to reinforce that the information is of good quality and that I can trust what was being conveyed. I will continue to listen to more episodes and look forward to it in the future.

Life saving!
This podcast didn’t save my life in the physical sense, it saved my LIFE, my living, my well being. A proverbial life preserver when I’m drowning in my own self loathing or fears or insecurities. Kara is honest, clear and concise AND a really gives you practical mental tools to get through the hard things in life. I cannot say enough about this, and I’m excited to continue to grow! I will be a stronger chicken!

Wisdom tidbits within an hour!
I’m learning so much about myself and my friends through this podcast. I’m focusing on changing how I share my “betterment and critical thinking” thoughts with others.

The best!
I’ve learned so much from listening to Kara’s podcast and I’m very grateful that I found it. Her no-nonsense, logistical, and extremely compassionate approach has resonated with my brain and allowed me to see opportunities to change myself for the better that I don’t think I could have otherwise seen. Thank you Kara!

It’s a five for me…
Kara is the best friend who is unaware of my actual existence, yet still finds a way to slap me when I need it & comfort me in a sometimes brash - yet oddly satisfying way. She’s guided me through a turmoilous divorce (no you won’t find that in Webster), & has never let me brush off the thoughts that I tend to excuse myself of having in order to avoid feelings of guilt. She’s a bit like the religion you decided you didn’t need after childhood, but then you occasionally sneak into Sunday mass when you’re having a bad day.. except Kara actually makes me feel better than a micro sip of wine & an offering plate full of hymns.

Life Enhancing Podcast!
Wow! I feel absolutely seen by Kara. This podcast gives you the opportunity to evaluate your life and the way you think. Just by listening I have reshaped how I think around certain topics and have bettered relationships because of it. 10/10 recommend!

Cool
I really appreciate the topics and the discussions. I REALLY dislike being called a chicken. It’s kind of demeaning and not very cool. We’re your peers. It’s just kind of disrespectful. I’ll still listen but I’ll fully roll my eyes every time.

Practical and useful
Kara is amazing. She brings her SUPER HIGH intelligence to understandable historical human behavior and thought patterns affecting how we want to show up in life. Wonderful show. Thank you Kara!

Practical framework
Kara provides a great framework on how to watch your thoughts and the results they are creating. I so appreciate her willingness to share examples from her own life, and abundance mentality. I have found some other great podcasts through the ladies she interviews. This podcast is a gift to the world.

Perfectionist? Pragmatic? Listen NOW!!
I just realized I have been listening to this podcast for over a year. I can remember reading the title and thinking yes, unf*cling my brain is exactly what needs to happen. The way Kara talks about things, the way she frames them and describes thought work has been a huge tipping point for my mental health. Simply put, this podcast helped change my life.

Life changing
Kara’s thought work teachings have drastically changed my mental well-being. I am so glad I found her and won’t stop singing her praises to all my female friends. I also joined the clutch and love it. I’ve learned so much. I’ve tried all kinds of therapy and self development, and thought work is the thing that has worked for me. I’m very grateful to Kara.

Life Changing
Take 10 minutes out of your day. While driving. While cleaning. While getting ready. Just click any episode and give Kara 10 minutes to change your life. I guarantee you won’t stop after 10 minutes and six months down the road you’ll find yourself in a completely new place that you’ve always wished you could be in.

Excellent Ideas
I really love hearing Kara’s views and coaching on life, love and worth. I don’t miss a single episode!

Episode on Loving vs Being Loved
Wow definitely had a breakthrough or two listening to this episode! Ever time I listen to Kara I realize how much conditioning women have to work through and how empowering it is to have that awareness. Without the awareness, there can be no action to actually address it.
Kendra MG
Love Kara and all the info and Insights shared on the podcast.
Been listening to the podcast for a year or so and it’s been huge for helping me refrain my mindset on topics I struggle with. So much of what is shared is so relatable and she goes a great job of painting with broad strokes in terms of exclusivity. I can’t wait every Thursday for the new episode to drop

This podcast changed my life
Yes, seriously! I’m so grateful I found this podcast and Kara’s work. I had been white-knuckling through my life, feeling as if I was barely hanging on. Through changing my thoughts I’ve let go of so much suffering and fear, and I’ve filled the space those consumed with joy and confidence. Every person socialized as a woman should give this a listen.
RainbowFarmgirl
Amazingly helpful!
This podcast is really helpful. I usually find this sort of stuff difficult to put into practice, but Kara knows exactly how to break things down so that you can actually put the techniques to use. Whenever I listen to her podcasts, I feel instantly lighter. I know that sounds dramatic, but it's true. Kara has a way of empowering whoever is listening to make real, concrete progress. I never thought a podcast could be so helpful, but it really is!

Obsessed with this podcast
I’ve listened to episodes so many times to really absorb the lessons & keep blowing my own mind! I love the Clutch as well bc it’s actionable ways to actually change your thoughts IRL! Kara is a genius and an important philosopher of and for our generation. Her work will be renown for ages to come… but what’s most important is LISTENING & improving YOUR LIFE NOW. Love you so much, Kara! We’re besties even though you don’t know me yet 😂.

Everyone needs to listen to this asap.

I have no good title
I really like the positive thoughts that Kara expresses here. Much of what she talks about has impacted the way I look at love and my life and I really like the expressions of thoughts that she covers. Particularly body issues and feelings- those are some of my personal struggles in my head and I like having small actions I can take to be kinder to myself. I wouldn’t say earth-shattering amazing, but this podcast DEFINITELY is a positive experience and thought provoking. I’ve sent a few to my partner and sisters just to have a newer and kinder perspective on our lives and relationships. Give it a listen- and just accept that we’re all Kara’s Chickens 😁

Life changer!
This podcast has helped me stop outsourcing responsibility for the way I feel and show up in the world. My anxiety has significantly decreased and I experience life with so much more optimism!

Grief and post traumatic growth episode.
Can’t say I related to any of this one. What a weird way to talk about grief. « Most of the pain of grief is not about missing the person ». I misquote, but something like that. I mean, talk for yourself. Too many mental gymnastics to try to control what are in fact just plain old horrible feelings. The coaching world can sometimes feel absolutely exhausting.
chd108
Honestly yes
It’s a good podcast and I do understand how some people are not about the whole chicken thing. That’s okay. I myself and not entirely about it but it doesn’t affect on how I feel about the podcast I also understand the Advertisement. You gotta do what you gotta do. I like it and like how she’s a coach but I prefer the older episodes. Keep going Kara (I forgot her name mid typing) good job and do what you want (I don’t understand how people are like “mehhhh 👹👹👹 I don’t like the chicken thing 🐥🐥🐔🐔🐔🦗🦟🦗🦟 RAHHAHAHAHAHA” so idk whatever.

Grieving lives not lived- I have been challenged by this feeling and you talked it through in a way I couldn’t up to this point. I enjoy your continually growing life insight.
