Exploring the challenges of starting creative tasks and battling feelings of inadequacy, this chapter emphasizes the importance of pushing through doubt to create something valuable. Insights from discussions with children shed light on negative self-talk, and strategies to manage the inner critic are discussed, with a focus on self-compassion and nurturing the 'good wolf'.
In this very special episode, Eric meets with several students from a school in Colorado. Their counselor, Ms. Rebecca has shared and discussed the parable of the two wolves with her students, and with the parents’ permission, invited Eric to “interview” the students.
