GLOW with Gerly

In this episode we explore one of the most powerful forces shaping our inner world: the voice inside our head.Many of us move through life believing that the constant commentary in our minds is simply “who we are.” But what if that voice is actually something we adopted long ago — from parents, teachers, or past experiences?In this episode, I share a personal story about noticing my own internal dialogue and how my relationship with that voice has changed over the years. We explore how the inner critic develops, why it can feel so convincing, and how awareness allows us to shift the dynamic.Instead of fighting or suppressing this voice, we can begin to observe it, question it, and even start a dialogue with it.You’ll learn a simple practice to help you recognize whether a thought is actually yours, and how to create a more compassionate inner environment — because you are the one person you will spend your entire life with.🎙️ Topics we explore in this episode:• Why the voice in your head may not actually be “you”• How childhood influences shape our internal dialogue• The 3 questions that can transform your relationship with your thoughts• Why naming your inner critic can be surprisingly powerful• How awareness creates the space for self-compassionIf this episode resonated with you, I’d love to hear your thoughts & what you decided to name your inner voice!📚 Resources mentioned:The Untethered Soul — by Michael A.

In this first episode of GLOW with Gerly, we explore a powerful and often misunderstood question in the personal growth and healing space:Do we need to kill our ego, unwanted patterns, or old identity in order to become someone new?Or is there a more loving, sustainable, and progressive way to create real transformation?In this short but potent episode, Gerly shares a trauma-informed perspective on why healing and change doesn't require force, rejection, or inner violence — and how approaching our inner world with compassion, curiosity, and respect creates deeper, longer-lasting shifts.Rather than “shooting dead” parts of ourselves that once served a purpose, we explore what it means to honour, understand, and lovingly retire old patterns, so that new ways of being can emerge naturally.This episode sets the energetic and philosophical foundation for the inner work explored in this podcast — and invites a softer, more mature and embodied approach to healing and growth.Connect with Gerly:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glowwith_gerly/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@gerlytoThreads: https://www.threads.com/@glowwith_gerlyHomepage: https://gerlyto.comSupport the podcast:Follow • Rate • Share
