S3 Ep26: The Inner Critic: Interview w/ Steve Chapman
Send us a textThe inner critic. The inner bully. Whatever the name - it's the voice inside our mind that often sabotages the life we dream of - and deserve. It tells us we're not good enough, smart enough, brave enough (and any other 'enough-ness' you'd like to add). It can be debilitating - always pulling us back to playing small.In this episode we interview TEDx speaker Steve Chapman - who back in 2017 gave a groundbreaking talk about the inner critic. We came across his work recently and knew you would relate to his journey and wisdom - as we did.From personal experience these are important conversations to have - so we feel comfortable bringing awareness and compassion to our own inner critic.You can listen to Steve's TEDx talk here:https://youtu.be/lnf-Ka3ZmOMAnd connect with Steve via:Instagram: @stevexohWebsite: www.canscorpionssmoke.comConnect with us:Youtube: The Midlife MentorsInstagram: @midlifementorsAnd join our free Facebook Group: The Midlife Mentors Community Support the showPlease remember, if you find the show helpful or it makes you laugh, motivates and inspires you - please do like, share and rate us.
