    How to Be Less Self-Critical - featuring Critical Care Paramedic Dave Ipsen

    Self-criticism is common in emergency services, particularly among people who care deeply and hold themselves to high standards. In this first episode of Shift Happens, we’re joined by Critical Care Paramedic Dave Ipsen for an open and grounded conversation about self-criticism: where it comes from, how it shows up on shift and at home, and why being hard on yourself doesn’t actually lead to better performance. Together, we explore practical ways to recognise self-critical thinking, respond with greater self-compassion, and develop a more supportive inner voice, without lowering standards or losing what makes you good at your job. This episode is for anyone who’s replayed a job, doubted themselves, or felt the pressure to always be better. Learn more: Self-Compassion - Information, community, learning Research on self-compassion and how it protects the mental health of first responders Research on how mindfulness and self-compassion could potentially decrease functional disability in returning veterans with PTSD symptoms.
