Why It’s Always Their Fault
from Intelligent Intoxication · host Terri Bradway
Psychotherapist and best-selling author helps her students and clients manage these five types of Inner Critics: Restless Inadequate Perfectionist Guilty Victim “The VICTIM Inner Critic has a pervasive sense of helplessness and will convince you that life is really, really hard! You can’t be happy or fulfilled until other people change or treat you better. The Victim Inner Critic makes excuses for why your life doesn’t look the way you want it to, blaming your parents, your ex-spouse, your past circumstances or even your genetics. The Victim Inner Critic makes you emotional and temperamental as a way to gain attention and affection .” Joann Kleinman I invite you to consider these questions: When do you blame others? When do you seek sympathy or pity from others? When do you notice pouting, being moody, or sulking in order to get attention? When do you give yourself permission to be emotionally reactive? How willing are you to believe that “it’s not your fault - but it is your responsibility”? How often do you keep score in your relationships? I highly encourage you to take Joanna Kleinman’s Inner Critic Assessment here: Inner Critic Assessment Find Joanna’s podcast here: Dethroning the Inner Critic podcast Find Joanna’s book here: Dethroning Your Inner Critic book If you have something you’d really love to hear on the podcast, I would be giddy and grateful to hear all about it: [email protected] I invite you to click on the link below to book your complimentary happy hour call: Chat with Terri...
