Retrain Your Inner Voice With These Simple Steps! | Dr. Karen Bluth

The voice holding you back isn’t life… it's the way you talk to yourself.

Dr. Karen Bluth is a leading researcher, author, and educator in self-compassion, whose work spans decades of mindfulness research and mental health education. But Karen’s story starts with her, as a teenager, struggling with self-doubt and quietly discovering practices that would later transform her life — and the lives of thousands of others.


Karen joins Mercedes and Anastasia to unpack the practical science and tangible practice of self-compassion, and why learning to be kind to yourself isn’t “soft”, it’s one of the most powerful skills you can build at any age. Karen shares how self-compassion reduces anxiety and depression, builds resilience under stress, and actually increases motivation and courage!


After this episode, you'll know:

– The difference between self-pity vs self-compassion.

– Hacks to showing yourself self-compassion.

– Science behind by self-compassion = more motivation + happiness.

– 'Back pocket' tools for calming down in moments of stress.

– How to rewire your inner dialogue.

Whether you’re a teen navigating pressure and expectations, a parent trying to support your child, or an adult feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or not-enough, Karen’s insights will change the way you think about yourself.
After this episode, you’ll feel calmer, more grounded, and equipped with next steps you can use immediately — starting today.
