If you were to answer this question, you'd likely reflect on the harsh words that your critical inner voice says, but in this episode, I share 'the 7 types of inner critic' as theorised by Psychologist Jay Earley and Psychotherapist Bonnie Weiss, who are within the Internal Family Systems experts (you can find out more about IFS here) to give you some further understanding on the things that hold you back in your inner world.
I will explore this and more in my FREE online workshop 'how to do YOU' here which will go further than this podcast, and give you some tools to help you build a better relationship with your inner parts.
I alluded to perfectionism and OCD- you can find out more here.

Note: this podcast is not intended as, nor should be taken as, 'therapy' or personal advice. It is something that can help you raise curiosity about your relationship with 'you', and how everyday challenges or past experiences may relate to that, and how you may be able to help yourself to create change either through self help or via a certified professional.
