Dr. Amanda Hanson - How to Stop Abandoning Yourself

Real Love Ready: The Series

Show Notes

So many of us have been taught to shrink ourselves to fit into someone else’s story. But what happens when we step into the center of our own? In this episode of Let’s Talk Love, Robin sits down with psychologist and author Dr. Amanda Hanson to explore what it truly means for women to become the muses of their own lives. Drawing from her book Muse: The Magnetism of Women Who Stop Abandoning Themselves, Amanda shares her journey from clinical psychologist to thought leader and guide for women ready to live bigger, bolder lives. She unpacks why so many women are taught to trade their desires for gratitude, and how reclaiming rage, releasing shame, and prioritizing self-devotion can become revolutionary acts of self care and healing. Together, they explore the importance of conscious female friendships, the beauty of being witnessed by other women, and how these connections can become a mirror and catalyst for transformation. Join us for a powerful and deeply affirming conversation about self-worth, feminine identity, and the freedom that comes with outgrowing old roles and writing your own rules. We hope Amanda’s insights leave you feeling seen and inspired to create a life that feels truly your own.
