    Hi, I'm Kara

    I started Scandalous Self-Care because I was done waiting for someone to give me permission to prioritize my health and wellbeing.

    And I was tired of hearing myself say I was going to take better care of myself. And then eating another cookie. And missing my workout. And staying up late scrolling.

    I was killing it in my career. But I felt like a fraud, knowing that in my personal life, I wasn't walking my talk.

    Do you know this internal habit loop: aches that become excuses, exhaustion that makes you hesitate, and a harsh inner voice saying, “Just push through.” Or how about feeling simultaneously embarrassed about how you look then angry with yourself for caring?

    When I took what I knew about the science of habit change and applied it to my own life — everything shifted. I didn’t need more willpower. I simply needed to match the methods that worked with my brain and my body.

    I Realized that Self-Care is Scandalous!

    • Prioritizing exercise and health challenges the “always busy” stereotype of aging women!

    • Embracing our own needs breaks old rules about aging quietly and invisibly!
