S3, Ep 4: How to Befriend Your Inner Critic
In this episode, we’ll explore why the common advice to "silence" or "erase" your inner critic is destined to fail. Instead, we’ll dive into the transformative power of listening to, learning from, befriending – and ultimately transcending – that critical inner voice. Whether you're struggling with confidence, imposter syndrome or negative self-talk, this episode provides guidance and techniques to turn your harshest critic into your greatest ally.
You'll learn:
- The psychology of the inner critic: What it actually is and why it’s trying to protect you.
- Identifying limiting beliefs: How to spot the hidden assumptions holding you back.
- Actionable tools & techniques: Methods for managing the inner critic in-the-moment and longer-term.
- A deep-dive case study: A real-life look at someone’s personal experience with their inner critic.
- Self-coaching framework: Questions to help you befriend and move beyond your critic, starting today.
Stop fighting your mind and start leading it.
