That voice telling you that you’re not enough is not your enemy.

If you’ve ever looked at your own life and wondered why you keep getting in your own way, this one is for you.

In this episode, Toni breaks down why self-sabotage happens and what that inner critic voice is actually trying to do. That voice was formed early, usually by three or four years old, when a part of you learned that love was conditional and that having needs, being joyful, or taking up space came with consequences. It adapted to keep you safe. And now, every time you try to change something in your life, it gets louder because change feels dangerous to that wounded part of you. Toni talks about why pushing that voice down or affirmation-ing your way past it doesn’t work, and what it looks like to actually stop, get curious, and start hearing what it’s trying to say. The work begins in the body, not the mind.
