She has a dual Master’s Degree in Therapeutic Education and School Psychology, as well as being a certified Hypnotherapist. In this episode, we’re chatting about: How the Inner Critic can show up no matter how successful you are or how much inner work we do. The distinction between our worry and the voice of our Inner Critic How Judy can tell that her Inner Critic is on her throne (and how she is able to dethrone her). How to get familiar with the Inner Critic’s repetitive patterns How our struggles become our greatest lessons Our language creates our reality The role Judy’s Inner Critic plays in her parenting Key Takeaways: “When it’s my Inner Critic, it’s far more focused on me than it is about what’s going to happen and when.” “When I recognize that she’s chattering away, I will literally use my breath to breathe in my sense of myself and breathe out the tension. And I will say, “No, I’m not listening to you. I know that’s not who I am and I’m not listening to you right now.”
