As the year unfolds, I've been wrestling with an uninvited companion: my inner critic. But instead of trying to kick it out, I found that getting to know it—understanding where it's coming from and why it's so relentless—can actually change the game. In our latest episode, we navigate the tricky terrain of self-criticism, exploring its roots and the societal pressures that feed it. It's about turning that criticism into constructive, critical thinking and celebrating our wins just as much as we scrutinize our setbacks. If you've ever felt like you were your own worst enemy, this conversation is an invitation to a more compassionate self-dialogue.
This episode isn't just about understanding our inner critic; it's about learning to live with it more harmoniously. I'll share how I've been practicing grace and compassion towards myself, even when I fall short of my own lofty expectations. We talk about strategies to reframe the inner critic from a backseat driver to a silent passenger—one who's along for the ride but not dictating the journey. Join me as we discuss practical ways to cultivate a kinder internal conversation, embracing curiosity as a tool to shift our perspective. By the end of our talk, you'll have a fresh outlook on how to manage that inner voice, making way for a gentler, more forgiving approach to the challenges and triumphs of everyday life.Where to find me:

In this episode we discuss the distinction between temporary weaknesses that can be improved and inherent limitations that may require acceptance and mourning is explored. This part of the conversation underscores the importance of self-compassion and setting realistic expectations in the face of personal limitations.

So many of us are trying to achieve a sense of balance in our lives. How do we juggle our work, home, social, and personal lives in a way that gives us a sense of peace? Well, we start by accepting that balance is a myth. We will never create a fixed permanent state of equilibrium. This is okay, but if we keep chasing it, we will end up burning ourselves out in its pursuit. In this episode, we will look at redefining what balance means for you and how to use our values to lean into all the moving parts in a way that makes sense.
