The Humans We Are Carola

In this episode, I talk about the common experience of dealing with our inner critic: a voice that often spews harsh self-criticism and judgment.
I encourage listeners to reflect on their own encounters with this inner voice, which can feel overpowering and true.
I emphasize that this critical voice is not the entirety of who we are; it's only one part.
We discuss how beliefs become ingrained through repetition, leading to automated thoughts that feel true but may not reflect our deepest truths.
By challenging these beliefs and connecting with our inner wisdom, we can shift our perspectives and create a more supportive internal dialogue.
Ultimately, I highlight the importance of acknowledging and honoring all parts of ourselves while striving to lead with our inner wisdom rather than our inner critic.

Today we explore the concept that our perceptions of reality are heavily influenced by our internal state.
In this episode we weigh the importance of self-awareness and personal growth, considering that changing ourselves impacts how we experience life.
