Ep 28: Why Women Are Their Own Harshest Critics

Published 8 months, 4 weeks ago
Description

We deep dive into why women are often their own harshest critics and how self-compassion is the key to unlocking potential and achieving our dreams.

 Self-criticism has become normalised to the point that we don't recognise how harmful our internal dialogue has become.

• Our brains develop self-sabotaging behaviours as protection mechanisms, not character flaws
• Perfectionism, procrastination, and people-pleasing all stem from fear of the unknown
• Taking action through fear rather than waiting for fear to disappear is crucial for growth
• True confidence comes from knowing you'll be kind to yourself even if you fail
• Surrender to the process while still taking action – do your part and trust the outcome
• Compassion differs from toxic positivity by embracing all emotions, not bypassing them
• Curiosity about your patterns breaks the cycle of shame and enables real change
• Self-acceptance doesn't mean not wanting to change – you can accept and still grow
• Nobody else is you – your unique strengths and weaknesses are what make you special
