In this episode, we break down why it’s not only normal but healthy to admit when you’re not okay.

Your inner critic can feel especially loud when you’re a single parent, carrying so much on your own and often facing extra pressure to get everything right.

You’ll learn how to recognise when your inner critic is present, how to meet it with curiosity and compassion, and how to respond in a way that supports rather than undermines you. If you’ve ever doubted yourself, felt guilty for not doing enough, or struggled with self-judgement, this episode will help you find a kinder, more supportive way forward.
Discover how to treat yourself with the same care and patience you offer to those you love, and start using your inner critic as a tool for growth instead of a source of self-doubt.
