9. How to quiet down your inner critic to live in true connection with yourself and others

Your inner critic is that voice you hear in your head that tells you that you’re not good enough, capable enough, smart, or brave. This inner critic will keep you stuck and disconnected - unless you transform this internal communication so you can thrive.

Today, we’re going to unpack where this inner critic starts and how it becomes so ingrained in our psyche.

I’ll share two stories demonstrating the impact our inner critic can have in our life, one from Trevor Noah’s book Born A Crime and the other one from one of my coaching clients.

What’s the answer to helping this inner critic quiet down? I’ll tell you an alchemical step you can take right away to lessen the influence of your inner critic.

Takeaways from this episode:

Our inner critic learns its labels from the people in our younger life.

You can transform that inner critic to experience freedom and connection.

True connection is a universal human need, not something reserved for a lucky few.
