267: How Embracing Your Flaws Can Unlock True Freedom with Kristina Mand-Lakhiani

Hey, Brave Table fam! You are in for an incredible episode today as I sit down with the one and only Kristina Mand-Lakhiani, co-founder of Mindvalley and author of Flawsome. We dive deep into her journey of turning imperfections into superpowers, uncovering the societal pressure to be flawless, and how she has consciously navigated motherhood, business, and relationships while embracing her flaws. Kristina gets real about perfectionism, conscious uncoupling, and the truth behind finding your authentic self. This episode will inspire you to embrace every part of yourself, imperfections and all. So, get cozy, grab your favorite drink, and let's get Flawsome! What you'll get out of this episode… Flaws and imperfections are not things to be fixed; they can be transformed into your greatest strengths. Perfectionism is a societal construct that often limits our ability to embrace our authentic selves. Navigating relationships, particularly in business and personal life, requires a balance of boundaries, compassion, and honesty. Being a mother doesn't mean losing yourself; it’s about embracing the complexities and imperfections of motherhood. Authenticity isn’t just a one-time decision; it’s a lifelong practice of aligning with your truth, even when it's uncomfortable.
