Join me, Dara Rossi, as I explore the persistent challenge of silencing our inner critic, the voice that demands perfection in every facet of our lives. Together with my esteemed guest, Pam Aks, a professional certified coach and author, we unpack the repercussions of this internal dialogue—from burnout to self-doubt—and present strategies for turning down its volume. Listen in as we navigate the roots of this critical voice, understand its evolutionary purpose, and learn how it can be reined in to foster a more confident and balanced mindset.

In this enlightening discussion, we tackle the fine line between caution and crippling self-doubt, offering practical tips on how to better tune into our feelings and discern the messages they're sending us. Hear how awareness and presence can be your tools to manage the inner critic, with actionable steps like changing your posture, engaging in third-person self-talk, and incorporating physical actions to counteract negativity. Discover the power of reframing your thoughts, recognizing that the voice inside your head doesn't define you—it's just data. So, whether you're looking to shed the weight of unrealistic expectations or seeking affirmation for slowing down, this episode is your guide to empowering your mindset through self-awareness.
