Do You Struggle with Self-Criticism?
The way you talk to yourself shapes how you experience life. If your inner voice is harsh, you’ll always feel like you’re falling behind.
This workshop will teach you how to shift your mindset, silence self-judgment, and become your own biggest supporter.
A True Story: How Renee Realized She Was Her Own Worst Critic
Renee collapsed into bed after another exhausting night.
- She had promised herself she wouldn’t lose her temper with her kids over homework, chores, and bedtime—but she did.
- Now, lying in bed, she relived every mistake, berated herself, and felt like a failure.
- "I’m a terrible mother. No matter how hard I try, I always fail."
She believed her self-judgment would push her to do better, but instead, it only made her feel defeated and miserable.
What Renee didn’t know was that her inner bully wasn’t making her better—it was holding her back.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re too hard on yourself, this workshop will teach you how to become your own best friend instead of your worst critic.
