Women are often praised for being “good” but what if goodness is holding us back from being whole? In this deeply thought-provoking episode, bestselling author Elise Loehnen returns to discuss her new workbook, Choosing Wholeness Over Goodness, a companion to her New York Times bestseller, On Our Best Behavior. They explore how deeply ingrained cultural programming shapes women's identities, expectations, and stories, often without our awareness. Elise breaks down the seven “sins” that subconsciously govern women's lives, including the good girl script, perfectionism, and self-sacrifice, and teaches us how to reclaim power by choosing truth and wholeness over performance and fear. You'll learn tangible tools for self-inquiry including “fact versus story”, how to identify fear responses, naming personas, and how to recognize if you're caught in a drama triangle. This episode is rich with insights, tools, and real-life examples that will help you begin to shift your internal stories, access deeper self-compassion, and build stronger, healthier boundaries. It's not about being a better woman—it's about being more you.

She is the host of Pulling the Thread, a podcast focused on pulling apart the stories we tell about who we are—and then putting those threads back together. Ultimately Elise is a seeker and synthesizer, braiding together wisdom traditions, cultural history, and a deep knowledge of healing modalities to unlock new ways to contextualize who we are and why we're here. She's also the author of the instant New York Times bestseller On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to Be Good (Dial Press/PRH). The book weaves together history, memoir, and cultural criticism to explore the ways patriarchy lands in the bodies of women and embeds itself in our consciousness—and what we then police in ourselves and in each other. Regardless of our religious provenance, the self-denial implicit in each of the Seven Deadly Sins—Sloth, Envy, Pride, Gluttony, Greed, Lust, Anger—reads like a checklist of what it means to be a “good” woman. With awareness, we can begin to recognize these patterns of self-restriction, break the story, and move ourselves and each other toward freedom and balance. Elise is a frequent contributor to Oprah, and has written for The New York Times, Elle Decor, Stylist, and more.

In this episode, Elise Loehnen explains why chasing goodness keeps us stuck and how to choose wholeness instead. For so many of us, the drive to be “good” shapes how we show up – as friends, partners, coworkers, even in how we speak to ourselves on hard days. But what does it cost us to live that way? Elise invites us to see that the real challenge isn't to feed only the good wolf, but to become a whole wolf; one who integrates all parts of ourselves, even the ones we'd rather hide. She explores the hidden price of goodness, the surprising usefulness of envy, the roles we unconsciously inherit, and the stories that keep us small.

Can we approach discomfort and tension as opportunities for growth? Can humanity mature beyond divisive conflict? This week, Thomas is joined by much loved returning guest, NYT bestselling author, and the host of the podcast, Pulling the Thread, Elise Loehnen, to hash out the concerning fragmentation that feels inescapable right now and explore what we can do to combat it. As we face past and current collective traumas, massive information overload, and current events that overwhelm our nervous systems, it's not hard to see how we got here. Thomas and Elise offer hopeful frameworks for navigating these challenges and bolstering our ability to hold tension, engage in mature disagreement, and ultimately, re-humanize each other through deeper understanding and self-regulation. This goes beyond surface-level “wellness” to incorporate psychological, spiritual, and practical approaches that we can adopt to build a stronger foundation for our individual and collective futures. It's an inspiring conversation that we hope you'll tune in for. ✨ Click here to watch the video version of this episode on YouTube:
What does it really mean to be a “good woman”? For the controversial podcaster and writer Elise Loehnen, female goodness is a misery trap. And so reclaim their happiness, to make themselves whole, Loehnen says, women need to stop being good. The former goop executive and co-author of the upcoming Choosing Wholeness Over Goodness explains how the seven deadly sins reveal women's hidden conditioning, how the wellness industry became toxic, and why the Enneagram can help women embrace their full selves—including the darker, "unacceptable" parts they've been taught to suppress. five key takeaways 1. The "Good Woman" Performance is Exhausting Women are conditioned to suppress basic human instincts—never being tired, needing no praise, having compliant bodies, avoiding anger—which requires enormous energy and is driven by fear of social rejection.2. The Seven Deadly Sins Reveal Female Conditioning What society labels as "sins" (pride, envy, sloth, etc.) are actually normal human traits that women are taught to repress, creating a "punch card" for performing goodness to the world.3. Women Police Each Other Through Envy Instead of recognizing envy as a signal pointing toward what we want, women often use it destructively to tear down other women who have what they desire—like the backlash against Goop.4. The Drama Triangle Keeps Us Stuck Most people operate in victim-villain-hero dynamics, blaming others instead of taking responsibility. Breaking free requires recognizing these patterns and creating different conditions in your life.5. Wholeness Beats Goodness True liberation comes from integrating all parts of yourself—including the "darker" aspects you've been taught to hide—rather than performing an impossible standard of perfection.Elise Loehnen is a writer, editor, and podcast host who lives in Los Angeles with her husband, Rob, and their two sons, Max and Sam.

Check out John's new website https://www.drjohnwprice.com/ Join The Open Gate – A Monthly Journey Through the Emotional Underworld The Open Gate is a live, monthly membership circle where we explore what I call the Little Teachers—emotions like shame, jealousy, and anxiety—not as pathologies, but as sacred guides. Each gathering includes teaching, meditation, journaling prompts, and a chance to reframe suffering as initiation. If you're longing for community, rhythm, and depth—this is a space to walk that path. - https://www.drjohnwprice.com/the-open-gate-lt In this deeply reflective solo episode of The Sacred Speaks, host John W. Price explores the elusive and powerful principle of the feminine—drawing on insights from his previous interviews with Dr. Jaime Clark-Soles (author of Women in the Bible) and Elise Loehnen (author of On Our Best Behavior). John shares personal stories of his own initiation into the world of nurturing and care as a single father, and discusses how our culture's overemphasis on the masculine has led to the neglect and invisibility of feminine values like intuition, mystery, and nurturing. Through the lens of archetypes—not gender—John examines how both masculine and feminine energies exist in all of us, and why restoring harmony between them is essential for personal and collective well-being. Using metaphors from music, psychology, and mythology, he invites listeners to embrace the mystery, honor the feminine, and seek a sacred balance within themselves and the world. Some key takeaways: The feminine represents mystery, intuition, and nurturing—qualities often undervalued in our culture. Masculine and feminine are archetypal energies, not tied to gender, and both are needed for inner and outer harmony. Restoring balance means honoring both energies, embracing the unknown, and seeking integration rather than dominance.

In this episode of The Sacred Speaks, host Dr. John W. Price sits down with Elise Loehnen—writer, researcher, and author of On Our Best Behavior, a book that explores how the ancient moral framework of the seven deadly sins has been internalized by women, shaping their identities, relationships, and sense of worth. This conversation is not just a review—it's a ritual inquiry. Together, John and Elise explore: The invisible “scripts” that define femininity in a patriarchal culture; How envy, pride, sloth, and other so-called “sins” reveal deeper spiritual truths; What Elise risked—and learned—by stepping out from her “invisibility cloak”; How patriarchal systems harm men as well, and the cost of emotional suppression; How men and women can co-create a future rooted in collaboration, not competition The role of grief, longing, and sacred agency in personal and cultural awakening; Elise also shares behind-the-scenes insight into her writing process, her podcast Pulling the Thread, and her evolving work around binaries, individuation, and collective healing. This episode is part of a broader arc on The Sacred Speaks focused on rebalancing the masculine and feminine within us and in our culture.

A Phil Svitek Podcast - A Series From Your 360 Creative Coach
Some books don't just land—they arrive exactly when you need them. True and False Magic by Phil Stutz and Elise Loehnen has been that book for me. It's more than just a workbook—it's a guide for facing life's unavoidable challenges: uncertainty, hard work, and pain. If you've read The Tools, this one goes deeper, stitching together familiar ideas like the Life Force, Part X, and the Realm of Illusion into a practical, repeatable system. I've been recommending it to friends nonstop because it's not just inspiring—it's actionable. If you're navigating a tough moment or looking to reconnect with your inner drive, don't skip this one.
I absolutely adored today's conversation with New York Times bestselling cookbook author Julia Turshen, all about building trust in ourselves and learning to become more intuitive cooks. Julia is the author of five books, including her latest, What Goes with What, which I'm giving away for free this month (check out the newsletter link below to enter to win!).You'll learn about Julia's childhood growing up in New York City and her longtime passion for food. Like so many women in the food industry, Julia hasn't always had an easy relationship with her body, and she opens up about her journey towards finding a happier and healthier relationship with food, and how intuitive eating helped. As we discuss, it's less about having a goal of intuitive eating, but more about letting go of the ways in which we're conditioned around food in order to find body autonomy and pleasure in eating.Julia also offers tips for becoming a more intuitive cook, sharing the practices, rituals and even appliances that help her find more ease in the kitchen. This ease leads to a deeper sense of inner trust and comfort in the kitchen, helping us let go of perfectionism in order to enjoy the process of tasting, experimenting and playing. I think you're going to be so inspired by this episode and will walk away with a whole new perspective on the power—and pleasure—of cooking.EPISODE LINKS AND RESOURCES:* Mind, Body, Spirit, FOOD Newsletter: https://mindbodyspiritfood.substack.com/p/julia-turshen* Find Nicki on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nickisizemore* One-on-one sessions with Nicki: https://mindbodyspiritfood.substack.com/p/coaching-and-cooking-sessions* Julia's website: https://www.juliaturshen.com/* Julia's newsletter: https://juliaturshen.substack.com/* Find Julia on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/turshen/* My podcast episode with Elise Loehnen: https://mindbodyspiritfood.substack.com/p/the-sin-of-gluttony-with-elise-loehnen* My podcast episode about rituals with Dr. Michael Norton: https://mindbodyspiritfood.substack.com/p/michael-norton This is a public episode.

Chapter 1 What's On Our Best Behavior by Elise Loehnen"On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to Be Good" by Elise Loehnen explores the complex relationship women have with societal expectations and the inherent pressures to conform to traditional ideals of goodness. Loehnen examines the seven deadly sins—pride, envy, wrath, sloth, greed, gluttony, and lust—arguing that while these traits are often viewed negatively, they can also serve as powerful expressions of strength and autonomy for women. Through a blend of personal anecdotes, cultural analysis, and historical research, she highlights how these societal norms shape women's identities and behaviors. Loehnen encourages readers to embrace their true selves, challenge conventional notions of virtue, and navigate the balance between being 'good' in a society that often restricts freedom and authenticity. Her provocative insights aim to empower women to reclaim their right to express desire, ambition, and individuality without fear of judgment.Chapter 2 On Our Best Behavior by Elise Loehnen Summary"On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to Be Good" by Elise Loehnen explores the societal expectations placed on women and how these pressures can lead to detrimental effects on their lives, decisions, and well-being. The book delves into the concept of the Seven Deadly Sins—wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, envy, and gluttony—framing them not just as moral failings but as a reflection of the ways women's behavior is policed by culture. Key Themes and Insights: Cultural Expectations: Loehnen examines how women are conditioned to behave in ways that align with traditional notions of "goodness," often sacrificing their own needs and desires to meet these unrealistic standards. Freedom in Authenticity: The author argues that embracing so-called deadly sins can lead to personal freedom and authenticity. She encourages readers to redefine what it means to be "good" and to reject the guilt associated with desires and behaviors that go against societal norms. Intersectionality: The book highlights how race, class, and sexual orientation intersect with gender, complicating the experience of being a woman in today's world. Empowerment through Vulnerability: Loehnen shares personal anecdotes and stories from other women to illustrate the importance of vulnerability and the strength that comes from embracing imperfections and complexities in female identities. Actionable Steps: Throughout the narrative, she provides actionable steps for women to reclaim their power, encouraging them to be less concerned with being "nice" and more focused on being honest and true to themselves, thereby dismantling harmful societal expectations. Overall, "On Our Best Behavior" poses challenging questions about morality and societal norms, urging women to consider the real costs of striving for perfection and to embrace a more authentic version of themselves.Chapter 3 On Our Best Behavior AuthorElise Loehnen is an American author known for her thought-provoking writing on social commentary and personal growth.

On the origins of our best behavior, managing undue shame and the price women pay to be good.
My whole life I have strived to be a “good girl.” But after this conversation with Elise Loehnen, I no longer want to be. You will learn... - the history behind the 7 deadly sins and how they've been weaponized by the patriarchy - who Mary Magdalene really was and how she got mislabeled as a prostitute - why thinness is the dominant beauty ideal in our current culture - the connection between PRIDE and ENVY - subtle ways women undermine each other Elise Loehnen is a writer, editor, and podcast host who lives in Los Angeles with her husband, Rob, and their two sons, Max and Sam. She is the host of Pulling the Thread, a podcast focused on pulling apart the stories we tell about who we are—and then putting those threads back together. Ultimately Elise is a seeker and synthesizer, braiding together wisdom traditions, cultural history, and a deep knowledge of healing modalities to unlock new ways to contextualize who we are and why we're here. She's also the author of the instant New York Times bestseller On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to Be Good (Dial Press/PRH). The book weaves together history, memoir, and cultural criticism to explore the ways patriarchy lands in the bodies of women and embeds itself in our consciousness—and what we then police in ourselves and in each other. Regardless of our religious provenance, the self-denial implicit in each of the Seven Deadly Sins—Sloth, Envy, Pride, Gluttony, Greed, Lust, Anger—reads like a checklist of what it means to be a “good” woman. With awareness, we can begin to recognize these patterns of self-restriction, break the story, and move ourselves and each other toward freedom and balance.

How does the patriarchy shape women's thoughts and actions, often without them realizing it? In this episode, Gabe Howard sits down with feminist thought leader Kara Loewentheil to discuss how patriarchal conditioning impacts women, both at work and at home. Kara explains the concept of the “brain gap” — the internal conflict between societal expectations and personal beliefs — and how women can work toward overcoming it. Through practical tools like her “10% Less (Crappy) Thought” technique, she helps listeners begin the journey of unlearning toxic thought patterns. This conversation digs into the subtle, often unnoticed ways sexism shapes women's everyday lives and offers actionable advice on how to reclaim their mental freedom and build stronger mental health. Listen now! “We're all making a deal with the devil to some extent, like I think beauty norms are patriarchal and oppressive. And also I'm about to go on a book tour, so I'm going to get a lash lift, like, because I'm going to have a lot of photos taken and I don't actually like to do makeup. And yet I want my eyes to stand out in photos. I think people assume that if you're a feminist, you are like a kind of purist ideologue. And that is not the case for me or most of the women I work with.” ~Kara Loewentheil To learn more -- or read the transcript -- please visit the official episode page. Our guest, Kara Loewentheil, J.D., is a Master Certified Life Coach, founder of The School of New Feminist Thought, and host of the internationally top-ranked podcast UnF*ck Your Brain: Feminist Self-Help for Everyone (50 million downloads and counting!). Her first book, Take Back Your Brain: How A Sexist Society Gets in Your Head – and How to Get It Out (Penguin Life May 2024) has been called a “galvanizing debut” by Publisher's Weekly, chosen as a “must-read” by the Next Big Ideas Book Club for May 2024, and praised by NYT-bestselling authors including Mel Robbins, Elise Loehnen, Dr. Marisa Franco, and Tori Dunlap. A graduate of Yale College and Harvard Law School, Kara did what every Ivy League lawyer should do: Quit a prestigious academic career to become a life coach! Eight years after she stepped down as director of a think tank at Columbia Law School, she has created a seven-figure business, taught millions of women how to identify the ways that sexist socialization impacts their brains, and helped women all over the world rewire their thought patterns to liberate themselves from the inside out.

Today, we're unraveling the knotty history of the seven deadly sins and shining a light on some surprising historical tidbits. Buckle up because your perception of virtue and vice is about to get a playful shake-up! Did you ever wonder where the idea of The Seven Deadly Sins came from? Well, buckle up because today we're joined by our special guest Elise Loehnen, who is the host of the podcast, “Pulling the Thread”, and author of the New York Times Bestseller, ON OUR BEST BEHAVIOR: THE SEVEN DEADLY SINS AND THE PRICE WOMEN PAY TO BE GOOD. It turns out, they were first discussed not by Moses or Jesus, but by a fourth-century monk named Evagrius Ponticus, who, after a spicy scandal, decided to jot down what he considered the eight pesky 'demons' of daily life. And yes, there were originally eight! But hold onto your hats - that's not all! We journeyed through how these so-called 'sins' have seeped into our view of femininity. From the historical mistreatment and misunderstanding of Mary Magdalene, all the way to modern challenges women face, like feeling the need to police each other and subjugate their desires to societal expectations. This is not your typical Bible study class! Whether you're a history buff, a feminist, or someone who loves a good old deep dive into cultural norms, this episode is your ticket to thinking differently about the world around you. #goodgirl #parentingpodcast #mompodcast #parentingtips #momlife #selfcare Resources We Shared: Learn more about Elise Loehnen Join our newsletter!

LIBERTY Sessions with Nada Jones | Celebrating women who do & inspiring women who can |
Elise Loehnen is a writer, editor, and podcast host of Pulling the Thread. Ultimately, Elise is a seeker and synthesizer, braiding together wisdom traditions, cultural history, and a deep knowledge of healing modalities to unlock new ways to contextualize who we are and why we're here. She's also the author of the instant New York Times bestseller On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to Be Good. The book explores the ways patriarchy embeds itself in our consciousness. The Seven Deadly Sins—Sloth, Envy, Pride, Gluttony, Greed, Lust, Anger—reads like a checklist of what it means to be a "good" woman and offers a path forward, moving ourselves and each other toward freedom and balance. Elise is a frequent contributor to Oprah and has written for The New York Times, Elle Decor, Stylist, and more. She has co-written 12 books, including five New York Times Best Sellers. Previously, she was the chief content officer of goop, and co-hosted The goop Podcast and The goop Lab on Netflix. Before goop, Elise was the editorial projects director of Condé Nast Traveler. Before Traveler, she was the editor at large and ultimately deputy editor of Lucky Magazine, appearing regularly on Today, E!, Good Morning America, and The Early Show. She has a B.A. from Yale. In this episode, Nada sits down with Elise to learn what prompted her to write On Our Best Behavior and to unpack how women have contorted themselves to find a place in history. Elise shares anecdotes about how modesty was prioritized and impacted her life. She discusses the importance of women showing up together and gives us context for why collectivism is essential. This cultural therapist (recently coined at a conference and an appropriate title for Elise) is at once a researcher, teacher, student, and friend. Her ability to clearly articulate our cultural condition gives wings to our unnamed inklings and fragmented thoughts. Elise is currently reading The Origin of Satan by Elaine Pagels, Morality by Jonathon Sack, and Integral Psychology by Ken Wilber. You can find additional recommendations at Bookshop, or Goodreads.

Did you know that the seven deadly sins didn't come from the Bible? How do cultural roots set up the stage for modern roles? Do you want to release yourself from harmful expectations and step into authenticity and a more genuine way of living?

In this podcast I talk to bestselling author and podcast host Elise Loehnen about being a woman in today's world, the price we as women pay to be “good” and “on our best behavior”, how this impacts our mental wellbeing, and so much more!

Elise is also the author of the New York Times bestseller On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to Be Good. This incredible book “weaves together history, memoir, and cultural criticism to explore the ways patriarchy lands in the bodies of women and embeds itself in our consciousness—and what we then police in ourselves and in each other”. It is about the way we as women are programmed by culture and society to adhere to certain ideas about “goodness”. in many ways, women, from young are programmed to be on their best behavior, while men are programmed to be powerful, which affects all parts of a woman's life.

Loehnen sat down with Hoda Kotb to discuss her latest book “On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and The Price Women Pay To Be Good”, exploring perfectionism, insecurities, how we can often be our own toughest critics and more.
Today, I interview one of my biggest mentors, Elena Brower. I ask her about the tension many of us feel as yoga teachers: How do we honor our own personal practice (which may be morphing away from the style of yoga we're known for), while still meeting our students' where they are? How do we not feel pigeon-holed by a certain technique or style? And trust our own voice? Listen in as we discuss:

Women are put into all sorts of boxes i.e. sexist roles and expectations on who we “should” be. Life coach Kara Loewentheil is back to talk some sense into us and teach us how to break these internalized thought patterns. You will learn... what “thought work” is and how it can help your mindset how to break out of the “virgin/whore” + “maiden/mother/crone” paradigms why “positive thinking” usually doesn't work long-term (and what helps instead) how our sexist socializations project onto the women around us Toward the end, Kara coaches Mary on some of the conflicting thoughts she's having about her career. Remember: the only way to stop caring about what other people think about you is to start caring more about what YOU think about you.

In this episode of the Matriarchy series, we explore how deeply ingrained patriarchal narratives can create a policing effect on the behavior of women. Author, Elise Loehnen, discusses her book "On Our Best Behavior" which examines how concepts like the seven deadly sins have historically been used to restrict women's behavior and police their adherence to an idealized form of "goodness." Loehnen unpacks the insidious ways women are culturally conditioned from a young age to suppress normal human drives like anger, ambition, and sexuality. And how disrupting rigid gender stereotypes is important when raising the next generation in order to build a more compassionate world. Jen and Elise discuss: How women are culturally conditioned and expected to embody "goodness" while men are oriented toward power How concepts like the "seven deadly sins" have historically been used as a patriarchal "punch card" to police women's behavior Why raising boys to have an emotional inner life nurtures positive identity development The current era of politics that calls for women to challenge the patriarchal system while also having compassionate dialogue to build a new, care-centered world where everyone can flourish * * * Thought-Provoking Quotes: “Women are trained for goodness and men are trained for power.” - Elise Loehnen “The worst thing for a woman is reputational harm--just the assigning of her badness. Bad mother. Toxic coworker. Toxic boss. Unkind. She says the wrong thing. And it's sort of impossible to defend yourself against that. We have zero tolerance, and it's very scary.” - Elise Loehnen "We need a culture where the men are like, 'I would like to be more like women. I need to be caring. I want to be nurturing and creative. And yes, I can be strong and I can be masculine, but I also need this underdeveloped muscle.'" - Elise Loehnen Resources Mentioned in This Episode: On Our Best Behavior by Elise Loehnen - https://bit.ly/44tz41D Goop - https://goop.com For the Love of Being Seen and Heard ft.

We are kicking off the year with a very enlightening conversation with Elise Loehnen, author of the New York Times bestseller On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to Be Good. We discuss these seven “sins” and the (wrong) notion we've been fed that a “good woman” is not supposed to indulge them, and why it's so much easier to damage a woman's reputation than a man's. We chat about embracing pride, using your envy to figure out what you want in life, owning your lustfulness, and why anger is a positive emotion. We also talk about the nonstop policing and judging of women's bodies, why we punish ourselves for being “gluttonous,” and how we can learn to accept our bodies. There is so much ground covered, but above all – the importance of women supporting each other in the name of world domination. Before Elise joins us, we're doing a quick Christmas/appetizer contest recap, sharing our goals for 2024, as well as some from our audience, and announcing the official slogan for the year. Enjoy!
