Episode Description

One of my goals is to use points travel as a vehicle to empower women to take full ownership of their entire financial lives. But, as you’ll hear on today’s show, there are some significant obstacles in our way that present serious challenges in making this a reality. We’re talking about money today but not in a way you’ve heard it covered on any other points podcast.

For this conversation about how we think about ourselves in relation to money, I’m joined by one of the most brilliant women that I know, Kara Loewentheil. Kara is the Founder of The School of New Feminist Thought and creator of The Feminist Self Help Society, host of the top-rated podcast UnF*ck Your Brain, and author of the upcoming book Take Back Your Brain.

Tune in this week for a unique insight into how your brain thinks about money. You’ll discover the lies you’ve been taught about yourself and money, particularly if you were socialized as a female, and most importantly, you’ll learn what you can do to break the cycle and build a money mindset that actually serves you.
