Amanda Hanson: The Multi-Trillion Dollar Beauty Trap (How To Escape)

Amanda Hanson: The Multi-Trillion Dollar Beauty Trap (How To Escape)

Author: Josh Trent December 9, 2025 Duration: 1:14:10

How many of the beliefs shaping your identity as a woman are truly yours, and how many were planted by a culture that profits from your self-doubt?

Josh Trent welcomes Dr. Amanda Hanson, Psychologist, Author, and Transformative Speaker, to the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 786, to explore why so many women feel broken inside a culture designed to keep them small, how beliefs from our lineage shape identity, how aging awakens feminine truth, and what it means to become a woman who leads from grounded power instead of inherited pain.


Magnetic: A Women-Only Immersive Experience

In just 2 days, you will bring back your magnetic energy, build an unshakable foundation of self-worth, and properly process years of suppressed pain.

No woman is broken. Most are just unmothered. And sometimes, even the women who seem to have it all: success, intelligence, ambition... find themselves face to face with an invisible wall.

They’ve read the books, gone to therapy, attended the retreats... But something is still missing. What's missing is YOU. Not the woman who is holding it all together because no one else will. Not the woman who’s high-achieving, high-functioning, but is profoundly neglected. Not the woman who holds space for everyone else but feels unseen.

The real you. The one who knew how to rest without guilt, laugh without filtering, and cry without apologizing. The one who was radiant without trying, before she believed she had to earn love by shrinking. The one who knows her worth.

It's time to bring her back.
