A Radical Awakening: Dr. Shefali on Guru Culture

A Radical Awakening: Dr. Shefali on Guru Culture

Today’s episode is sponsored by BetterHelp and More Labs.

Dr. Shefali is a renowned authority on family dynamics and personal development who has published four books (three New York Times best-sellers) and teaches classes and seminars across the globe. She has all the makings of a guru, but is the first to say she doesn’t dig guru culture - and in fact has some pointed thoughts on the personal transformation space, the patriarchy, the way society mindfucks mothers, and navigating the self-help path without it going all to hell.

She’s not our typical guest but we like to mix things up, and we had so many questions for her. Like how do you know who is legit these days in the personal transformation world? If we’re wary of “thought leaders” but looking for inspiration, where do we look?

Learn more about her best selling books, courses, and the upcoming Evolve Summit at her website: http://drshefali.com

Notes:

You can register for Dr. Shefali Evolve 2023 Annual Summit, her 7th one, which will take place on October 6th-8th in Atlanta, Georgia.

You can follow Dr. Shefali on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube.
