Ep. 32 How Community Supports Inner Critic Work. An Interview with Deb D.


Listen Later

In this episode, I chat with my friend, Deb Driscoll, founder of Big Life Magic, to talk about how community can shut down that inner critic we all deal with. You know the one - it’s always making us second guess ourselves, telling us not to ask for help, or making us feel like we have to do everything on our own. Deb shares how she overcame this mindset and we talk about how surrounding yourself with the right people can make all the difference. We break down how building a solid community for ourselves gives us the confidence and support we need to push past self-doubt, grow, and heal.


Episode Highlights:

  1. How community support can shut down our inner critic's fears and limitations.

  2. Going from grief to big life magic using spiritual practices and actionable tools.

  3. What makes communities powerful and provides a sense of belonging, even when everyone is very different.

    Deb: "I think community is defined by people or place. So it's the gathering together of a group of people who are either connected because of who they are, what they're interested in, or where they are."


    [41:58]

    Tosca: "There is no winners and losers in the community mindset in a we mindset, dare I say the Aquarius mindset, you know, and I appreciate your observations, because I think the thing that I'm always talking about, right, like, is this is the hardest work of our life. This work of becoming our own best friend, this work of getting out of our own way to live our biggest dreams. And we don't have to do it alone, which is the main reason why I wanted you on this show to talk about, what does it mean to not do life alone?"


    [1:00:10]

    Deb: "What I realized months ago through the women in the community is it's not about the magic, it's about the women being together and that value of being together and being seen. What's the benefit of being in the community? ...What they're saying is, I've learned to trust myself."
