How to Manage Your Inner Critic
Do your thoughts serve you or hold you back?
Welcome to this first ‘How to’ episode here at Don’t Stop Us Now!
This is where we choose a common theme and career challenge raised in previous episodes (or from your requests) and share the best ways to help you tackle this challenge and be your most awesome, unstoppable self!
In this episode you’ll hear Claire and Greta examine that pesky voice we all have inside our heads – the dreaded inner critic. We call it the Evil DJ.
If you listened to Audette Exel’s recent episode you may remember her epic quote about her inner critic:
“Now I know, I’ve identified the voice, so I’d say to it, “Oh hello voice of 2000 years of oppression, I am not going to listen to you.” I can never shut it up, it’s on my shoulder, as it is on all our shoulders.”.
Audette’s learnt a key lesson – No matter how compelling our thoughts may be, our thoughts are not necessarily facts.
Tune in now to hear:
- theories on why we have an inner critic
- what can happen if you let your Evil DJ dominate your thoughts,
- and importantly, learn a simple, science-based tool to help you manage your inner critic and improve your mindset.
Enjoy this episode!
