In this episode, you’ll meet Marie, who is seriously struggling with self-doubt. No matter how well an interaction at work might go, she frequently gets in her head, replaying over and over how it could’ve gone better. Marie is afraid that she takes up too much space and so often bends over backward to put others first, not only at work but with her family as well. Unsurprisingly she’s exhausted. Marie is aware that this way of thinking is preventing her from taking risks, let alone feeling a modicum of peace, and so came to me for some guidance on how to turn down the volume of her inner critic. We do deep in this session so I hope you’ll listen to the whole thing - there’s a great breakthrough at minute 23 - and a turning point around minute 47 where I admit to her that ironically, I was getting in my OWN head during our session and then walk her through how I shift things to a more compassionate place.
Just a note for all of you listeners, this session has been recorded with her consent and edited for clarity. If you’re interested in being coached by me or simply have a question you want answered, go to clairewasserman.com.
