Ever catch yourself mid-roast... but the target is you? You call it "being real," "staying sharp," or "pushing for better"—but what if that inner critic is actually holding you back?
In this episode of I've Changed My Mind, host Khalia Deborah Stokes unpacks the toxic self-talk we've normalized, and shares how she learned to challenge the chatterbox in her head. The one that said she wasn't enough, didn't belong, and needed to be "better" to be worthy.
This isn't about blind positivity. It's about recognizing the difference between helpful growth and harmful self-sabotage—and choosing to speak life, not limitation, over yourself.
Because that mental roast session might feel familiar… But it's not home.
