Some of us struggle with that self-critical inner voice, that part of you that gives expression to your self doubt and anxiety. In this episode, we’ll uncover how to challenge negative self-talk, boost your confidence, and cultivate a more positive self-image. I examine some tactics and strategies for quieting that relentless inner critic, from mindfulness practices to cognitive-behavioral techniques. I hope to help us learn how to replace self-doubt with self-compassion and build a more supportive inner dialogue.

In this episode, we unravel analysis-paralysis, a productivity killer. Overthinking, fear, lack of information, confidence issues, and self-judgment are often the root of this problem. Thankfully strategies for managing each exist: be goal-focused, face fears with courage, gather essential information, boost confidence with positive self-talk, time your decision-making process and replace self-criticism with a growth mindset. This may be the one thing holding you back. Thanks for listening.
