Ep.41: Turning Down the Inner Critic

This week’s episode is a short, reflective one.I share something that happened during a yoga class this morning, a simple reminder from the teacher that really landed with me: be compassionate with yourself.It made me think about how easily the inner critic creeps in, especially when we’re busy, and how even with all the self-awareness tools we have, we still need to be conscious enough to use them.I also talk about something from Roxie Nafousi’s book on confidence...her idea of the inner heckler and inner cheerleader and how that links so closely to our health. Because when that critical voice takes over, it doesn’t just affect our mindset; it impacts our habits, our motivation, and how we care for ourselves.In this episode, I explore:How to notice when the inner critic takes overSimple ways to channel your inner coach insteadWhy compassion, not criticism, supports real progress with health and wellbeingIt’s a gentle reminder that we don’t need to silence the critic ....just not let it run the show.Hope you enjoy.Nikki
