How to Build Your Self Worth By Meeting Your “Inner Mother”: Reparenting & Parts Work 101


Listen Later

Ep. 135 Do you feel like there’s often a rebellious, childlike part of you calling the shots despite your best efforts to take action aligned with your goals? Does she procrastinate to the point of self-sabotage, or go for the box of cookies when you know a solid meal is what you need? Does this rebellion come out when you’re working to an extreme, being especially hard on yourself or tying your worth solely to your productivity? This is where “reparenting” ourselves comes in: the part of adulthood where we realize it’s our job to be our own parent, but we have no idea where to start when a parent was also unkind to themselves or not in touch with their own worth and needs. Over the last four years, I've slowly learned how to answer the question, "what do I need right now?" — sometimes it’s good old discipline, other times it’s connection or rest. I found that I got to recreate my own “inner mother” who was capable of being honest and curious enough to make the call from a place of trust and self knowing,  but it wasn’t easy to get there. I'm walking you through every step I had to go through to move from self-criticism to self-parenting.

HERE'S THE JUICE:

  • Could letting go of perfectionism and competition help us rediscover joy and authentic self-expression?

  • How to shift away from productivity-based self-worth to intrinsic self-worth & why treating yourself with kindness can be used as a tool to  build self-trust over time 

  • Practical steps for developing your inner mother voice through accessible day-to-day actions such as unstructured play to explore creativity

  • How to self-regulate and break the cycles of self-avoidance we might have formed in our childhood 

  • Ways to recognize when your inner child is running the show and possibly hindering your day to day without us even realizing it
