Taming the Inner Critic

The inner critic or critical inner voice is a concept used in popular psychology and psychotherapy to refer to a sub personality that judges and demeans a person. As a form of negative self-talk, it functions as a harsh, often irrational judge that undermines self-worth and perpetuates self-sabotaging, perfectionistic, or fearful thoughts. In this episode we discuss how our inner critic shows up in our lives, what influences it and strategies we use to tame it. We all have one (we do, right?!), so lets talk about it.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
