2023 Summit: Cultivating Resiliency by Quieting Your Inner Critic with Carla Howard

In this episode of the WE United podcast, hear from Carla Howard as she presents “Cultivating Resiliency by Quieting Your Inner Critic” to the attendees of the 2023 Annual WE Summit. In her presentation, Carla discusses when and how our inner critic tends to show up in life, and how to quiet that critic through confidence and resiliency.

Our inner critic tends to show up when we are out of our comfort zone, in the midst of comparison, or during feelings of self-doubt. With practice, we can learn to recognize these patterns of arrival – like a broken record that skips repeatedly. Instead of shying away from our inner critic, Carla recommends getting to know them! Describe them, record times when they appear, and even give them a name. “When you recognize and name your inner critic, you’re already on the path to improvement.”

Carla concludes with suggestions on reframing the message from our inner critic. By knowing what your critic is going to say, you can prepare to diminish their voice and take back your confidence and power. Listen in for more tips from Carla on quieting your inner critic!
