Most of my life, I was the Katie that everyone expected me to be, it wasn’t until I was an adult that it all started to seem inauthentic. Once I discovered who I truly was, that's when everything changed for me. Maybe you’ve had a similar experience or are on your journey of finding who you truly are and that’s why you’ve decided to listen to this podcast. I had the most beautiful conversation with my guest in the episode, Kate King. 

Kate King is a licensed professional counselor, board-certified art therapist, radiant life coach, published author, professional artist, and creative entrepreneur. She expertly teaches a unique transformational healing strategy that integrates science, psychology, creativity, and spirituality. Her new book is The Radiant Life Project: Awaken Your Purpose, Heal Your Past, and Transform Your Future 

In this episode, we talk about what our innermost self is, and how we can differentiate it from the inner critic, and Kate shares some tangible ways we can discover our true self. 

In this episode of the Contagious Confidence Podcast, we talk about:

• Defining innermost self 
• Internal Family Systems - IFS Family Therapy
• Adaptive mechanisms
• Differentiating between inner critic and true self 
• Building a relationship with your inner critic 
• Self-abandonment 
• Connecting to your innermost self when it comes to making decisions 
• Confidence is hard-wired into you, you just have to find it
