Part 2: The Cure for the Superwoman Complex


Listen Later

In the last episode (Part 1), we explained what the Superwoman Complex is and in this episode we are going to explain what the CURE is for those who are stuck in the Superwoman Complex.

It is that unnatural, perfectionist voice of the Inner Critic that pushes and bullies us to success.  So, today, in Part 2, I discuss 4 main points that form the cure for the Superwoman Complex and that rest on the cornerstone point, the fundamental point, that underlies the entire cure. That is, speaking to ourselves in the voice of the loving Inner Mother on our way to success. Without this, these other 4 points are moot. Now, those 4 points that form the cure:

  1. Treat time as your friend. It is about quality not quantity.
  2. It's not enough to know your values, you must LIVE them every single day. Even if it's 10 minutes at a time.

  4. Be aware and be willing to meet your own NEEDS.
