Summary

Have you ever wondered what “real power” looks like when it isn’t tied to manipulation or the patriarchy’s playbook? In this eye-opening episode, I sat down with Kasia Urbaniak, former professional dominatrix, long-time Taoist practitioner, and women’s empowerment coach, to reveal the subtle ways we give up our power—and exactly how to take it back. We’re talking about personal agency, unapologetic desire, and how to step into every room—boardroom or bedroom—with the kind of confidence that amplifies your voice and serves your well-being. If you’ve ever found yourself holding back from asking for a raise, a favor, or even a simple upgrade because you fear rejection or being labeled “too much,” this episode will be your game-changer.  Kasia’s Links:  Website: https://www.kasiaurbaniak.com/ Unbound Book: https://www.kasiaurbaniak.com/unbound-book Read transcripts, learn more about our guests and sponsors, and get more resources at https://herfirst100k.com/financial-feminist-show-notes/209-power-what-it-truly-is-plus-a-10-second-practice-to-help-you-get-it-with-kasia-urbaniak/ Not sure where to start on your financial journey?

If you wanted to imprison somebody, if you wanted to totally repress and control somebody,

the hard way would be to create laws and punishments and prison bars.

The easy way would be to limit their imagination.

0:12.0

Because you can't choose something you can't imagine.

So that is the number one obstacle to free will.

0:17.6

And the power of being able to leave your identity for a moment, you know, in my case,

0:22.8

I was the people pleaser who pretended to be a dominatrix, but it didn't stop there. If you don't have

0:26.7

to be yourself and you can try on different things, you discover that you're much more multifaceted

and that you have a lot more options than you thought.

Hello, financial feminists. Welcome to the show. I'm thrilled as always to see you. I have

0:41.6

my one last Christmas decoration that I've not put away. And for audio only listeners, he is a

0:47.3

Trader Joe Snowman with a fun little airplant hat. It's a plant though, so I don't feel like I want to put him away. I don't know.

0:55.8

I'll figure it out. He's kind of cute. And I guess he's winter themed so he can stay on my desk

But really, we teach them how to use money as a tool to build the life that they love and to be

1:18.6

able to leave situations they don't want to be in and put themselves in great ones. And that's

1:24.1

that's what we do. So thanks for being here. Today's episode is a really, really fun one. And one of my

favorite conversations, I know I feel like I say this all the time. Like one of my favorite
