In this episode, Lisa and Natalie discuss:

• Why everyone should face their inner critic. 
• Ways in which the inner critic shows up in teens and young adults. 
• Building the muscle of resiliency.
• Strategy tools for silencing your teen’s inner critic. 

Key Takeaways: 

• Having an inner critic is normal, but it does need to be addressed so the negative thoughts do not become your teen’s beliefs and actions. 
• It is important to tackle the mindset before tackling the inner critic. Building up the mindset and resiliency is the foundation. 
• Remind your teen that courage looks like confidence to an outsider. They should do things scared, and it will become easier in time.
• Trial and error is the key to your student learning how to silence their inner critic. What works for one person will not necessarily work for someone else.
